The main reason for the magazine to shift to digital version is due to poor advertisement revenue, which is the key to sustain print publications, especially in this challenging Internet era.

Even though the whole world is going digital in every aspect; to me, there is nothing better than holding a print version of any publication with its smell of newsprint and reading it.

It is for sure, there will be more publications from across the world expected to follow the footstep of Newsweek in the years to come. At the same time, in India, which has an extensive and wide ranging readership, print publications will continue to be the best choice for its millions of readers.
