fRoots Digital Subscriptions

fRoots now has a digital edition that is fully readable online or when downloaded to your computer. Here's a fully viewable sample of the whole May 2011 issue.

As you can see, it's exactly the same as the printed edition of the magazine, with working web links throughout the editorial and some adverts.

Digital subscriptions offer great savings for overseas readers who may find the extra postage costs of the paper magazine prohibitive, or are concerned about the environmental costs of shipping chunks of processed tree around the planet. It's also a slightly cheaper alternative for UK readers who don't have space for storing magazines.

Digital subscription rates are £36 for one year or £68 for two years. We also have a special UK student rate of only £9 for one year, for those under 25 and in full time education in the UK.

For postal subscribers who would also like access to the Digital edition, there is a small supplement of £9 per year to your postal subscription at the time of buying or renewing.

Digital subscribers do not receive free sign-up/renewal incentives such as CDs or back issues - i.e. nothing gets posted at all! The tracks on the free fRoots compilation albums with some issues are available to Digital subscribers as a downloadable Zipped folder of mp3s plus artwork, accessed from a link within the digital edition.

Secure access to paid-for digital editions is limited to a maximum of 5 computers per issue/subscriber. All paid-for issues will continue to be readable in perpetuity with your log-in and password, even when subscriptions expire: we recommend you to download them.

Please note that there is no digital edition available for the iPad, which is unable to run the necessary Flash application.

All Lifetime Subscribers to the paper magazine automatically receive full secure access to the digital editions.
