Has anyone uploaded the digital copy to a Torrent site yet? And actually, I was curious about this Matthew - what stance will you take on piracy? Are you fine with people sharing the digital copy with each other, knowing that it will happen regardless? Or are you going to attempt to fight it somehow? I don't represent everyone at the magazine or BitTalk Media with the following comment, so take this with a grain of salt. I personally think that if we have a magazine that is easily stealable, then it deserves to be stolen. We're not going to be giving out a pdf file for example. On another note, I believe in the power of community. The only people ripping this magazine off would be those with absolutely no money and no thought of supporting the magazine- in which case they have their reasons and I appreciate that. There is a dangerous line between print and digital though, and I want to make sure that the actions of digital release never complicate the print release. I have no problem with giving the digital away for absolutely free-- it's the fact that we'd have no revenue to print the physical issues that would be the problem. Whatever we decide, everyone will find out at the same time as we're planning on Android, iPhone and general Web releases as well. I am also very open to suggestions for how to handle it (please, nothing like "Pay with a Tweet") and still keep the magazine alive. I have been involved with a lot of clubs. We try to raise money in different ways. Car wash, door-to-door selling stuff, donations, etc. However, there is one really effective way to raise money that is easy and effective. The successful clubs I join run a raffle at each meeting and people can buy raffle tickets. The prizes are donated or bought. The revenue generated from the tickets funds the club. So, if there was someway for you to run a raffle for prizes maybe you can use the money to fund the magazine, which will be for a good cause for bitcoiners. Yeah a raffle would be good with free issues and bit coin prizes, I think in magazine offers would be great too though

For fun you should put a private key in every edition. A phrase or sentence that has like 10BTC on it. First one to discover it gets the prize.
Would be cool to see this

You must contact merchants that use PayPal shopping cards and tell them that you will never use PayPal because it is pure evil (likely the merchant has already experienced their accounts being locked multiple times randomly), but you will send them 10BTC worth $60 right now for their product, and it is safe, has no fees, and cannot be disputed once it is confirmed. I have a product I wanted to buy, only one company is the US distributor, and as they are mainly on eBay, so even on their web site they ONLY take PayPal - perfect candidate for a "we can do business if you take Bitcoin" campaign.
I could see that working if we all did it instead of first going through paypal and such
