Task 2C

There are many more advantages of digital publishing compared to traditional printing. Digital publishing is easier for the world to access unlike traditional where they could only be one copy left or currently running low in selected stores. whereas digital publishing you can easily gain access from any device owned that is able to access the wanted products. Traditional would be a longer procedure of getting hold of the item whether it's a newspaper, magazine, book or any type of traditional printing. 
A couple examples of traditional printing are , Lithography, Screen printing, Gravure and Flexography. Using these methods here will take up more of your time as it is a very massive time consumer, this is all because it is done by the human hand instead f a computer. then we have digital publishing which allows us to do our work on the computer and it's much easier. Also in our generation today more people use they mobile device for various things so by doing that they will be spending an most of their overall time on the phone, by using their device they are more open to many other thing such as news articles smartphones/tablets online than going and buying a newspaper, magazine and books etc. A few examples of digital publishing are e-magazines, e-newspapers, adverts, DVD covers, Training materials, promotional material, flyers, e-books and leaflets.  
many different examples can be given than an e-book would be better than the actual book, this could be that travelling to buy the book wouldn't always be sufficient as when you buy the book directly from the E-book store you would defiantly save a trip there and back. Also another efficient way of saving time would be just directly buying it digitally. however with it being digital we have a lot of disadvantages, some people somehow copy these digital books and pirate it, meaning they would share everything online for free, this also means that the book would lose a lot of value as you can gain free access to it. however online magazines and newspapers isn't the same, many newspapers are free so therefore buying it digitally would just be a waste of money unless the selected newspaper is for free.  
I think both have advantages and disadvantages, however digital publishing is likely to be better and efficient and a new step forward in life as it is simple for everyone to access.
