  1. Think the 3 idea might be a bit unrealistic - I like the idea of 'Ignition' magazine, but think that unless it is about hip hip in a local area then it would be a mainstream magazine as Hip-Hop is a popular genre of music.

  2. Idea 2 sounds the best as it would target alot of British Dance fans.

    The extra content such as the competition and learn how to DJ would appeal to alot of dance fans.
