My answers:

1. The closed magazines I'd most like to see come back would be Dolly (it was such a good read as a teen, especially the sex ed advice from Dolly Doctor), CLEO, Cosmo, Madison (similar to ELLE and Marie Claire), and a retro pin-up mag called 'Vintage Life' (see a run-down on it here: http://pinupchillimarie.weebly.com/chillis-blog/vintage-life-magazine-chillis-review)

2. I was probably most shocked by Australian ELLE closing in 2020.

3. I'm not really a digital mag reader (firmly into print for both books and mags, but I'm happy for other people to read via audio books or digitally -- to each their own). The magazine I make an exception for is UK 'Writing' magazine. If I wait for the print edition to arrive from overseas, the writing competitions it lists will have already closed by the time it gets here. So, specialist print mags with many overseas readers might do well in digital.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents. : )
