There are other things the £4 could be spent on, like making the magazine colour, projects like printer software, a better SGC or a lottery bid for a portable case, USB, ethernet etc. etc. I think Quanta members are price innerlastic and therefore after over 10 years at £14 we should be raising the price. How many members will the reduction to £10 generate, have you got a plan to target poor QLers and potential poor QLers (say a free QL scheme)? Does the £14/£17 cost differential have to be kept? Lets not fade away.
Thanks for this contribution, Tarquin, it is the sort of discussion we
should be having. I would like to see the subscription stay at £14 with the
differential removed. (The £3 extra for overseas members only brings in £150
from an income of £6000). I don't think a reduction to £10 would bring in
any new members, but £4 per member invested in QL development might
encourage one or two more people to join.
Best Wishes, Geoff
