Peer Feedback Peer 1: said that a dubstep genre magazine would probably be the best choice because I have more knowledge of it and am more likely to produce better work. Peer 2: said that the dubstep idea was also my best bet because there is an absent niche in the market that audiences may want to be filled. Peer 3: said the classic rock genre, also because there is not a lot of print information like magazines about non-current music - there may be a demand.
Final Decision: My final decision is the dubstep magazine because I feel that there is a gap in the market for it and there is a demand for the gap to be filled. I am also a fan of dubstep so it is likely that I will remain persistent with this task.
