Disk magazine

A disk magazine, also known as a diskmagazine, diskmag, magazine on disk, or magazette (a portmanteau for "magazine on diskette"), is a magazine that is distributed in electronic form to be read using computers. These had some popularity in the 1980s and 1990s as periodicals distributed on disk, as the name implies. The rise of the Internet in the late 1990s caused them to be superseded almost entirely by online publications, which are sometimes still called "diskmags" despite the lack of physical disks.
