Advantages: not many

Disadvantages: too many

You'd expect a pretty well made mag, this being the official on-paper version of the Ministry of Sound super-club. And it is. It's journalistically good, and well made. But to be honest, it find it doesn't really satisfy me as a dance music magazine. It does run some good features on occasion, and you get a few shots of bare-chested beauties, but I have never been compelled to buy it for a feature or special article or interview. No, what I buy it for is the free cover mounted CDs, which are of a great standard. At least, they were. Back about a year or two ago, you could find one CD every 3 months or so, and they were awesome. But these days, they come on nearly every issue, and the content has certainly suffered for it. They are far inferior to the music offered by Muzik, the best of the dance mags, and although Ministry's review section is expansive, it doesn't make it a good magazine by a longshot and I think it will need a big revamp (or more likely, extra breast shots) before it picks up again.
