SOUND ON SOUND magazine has partnered with BT and is now offering site visitors the means to buy and download a growing range of articles — individual TUTORIALS, musician/artist/producer/engineer INTERVIEWS plus SOS's respected in-depth, hands-on PRODUCT TESTS — utilising BT's secure Click&Buy micropayment service.

Each Portable Document Format (PDF) article has the exact same styling and page layout as the equivalent print article that appears in our monthly UK magazine but with the major benefit of fast, full-text searching and zooming of images (when opened with Adobe Acrobat Reader) — just like the article files on our ever-popular, Back Issue CD ROM annual compilation discs.

Most magazine PDF articles are currently priced at 99 pence each (approx US$ 1.80) and billing is always in Sterling GBP. If outside the UK, the price will be converted by your credit card company at the prevailing exchange rate at the time they process the transaction.
