A broadband connection cost per month is more than that of the digit magazine
and some articles are good for a laugh
even the fast track is gr8 for learning

I started to subscribe digit for cd's frn 2002 it will end in july2008, but now i like the mag more and since i hav BB dvd's are of no use.
It would be nice if they can give only mag+Fast track version at low price without dvd.

I stopped buying digit after august 2005 when they changed the format of the magazines, i have all the issues before that date, and do read it sometimes just to past time... sigh... i miss the old digit.

I sometimes borrow the copy from friends...

The only thing I love on magazines are Gadgets. And Living Digital is far better in providing that eye candy than Digit. But if its an all round tech mag you wish, there's Digit, Chip and whatever. I just got myself the internet to be more quick in pace with technology.

Yea buddy, you are right. The content seems to be outdated for me as I read news on the net about similar stuff something like 2months before they are published on the book...

i have read only one DIGIT mag in all my life. i think it was of aug 06. it had some mega harddisk comparision.

but subscriber of CHIP and PC WORLD. i bought 1 yr subscription to PC WORLD for the only reason that it was available for Rs.60/- a month. I will kiss goodbye to PCW when the subscription ends.

I really love the mag and so I am a subscriber. Actually I can say Digit is my 'guru' regarding computer knowledge. Actually if you have a bb connection, you can download all the stuff that will be included in the discs someday and you can have the pirated version of the mag in .pdf format also, but I still prefer the current format (print & disc) and will be a subscriber/reader for some years more.

ps.- I said 'subscriber/reader', coz I am really very bothered with their care for subscribers. They dispatched the June issue on 13th through post (although I usually receive the issues through courier) and I haven't the June issue yet.

I am buying Digit every month since Feb 2005.

I started LFY in January 2005 but discontinued after they stopped giving only magazine for 25Rs in 2006.

Then I started buying PC World and now I buy it regularly.

As of now I buy every month:
~ Digit
~ PC World
~ Better Photography
~ Entire set of Raj Comics (They are irregular so it gets skipped sometimes and sometimes, there are 2 sets in 30 days)
