When fashion magazines face competition from fashion blogs on the web, the threat of substitutes gets stronger. The threat of substitutes is the idea that products or services available from outside the given industry will come close to meeting the needs of current customers. The threat of substitutes is high when the substitute offers an attractive price-performance trade-off or when the buyer's cost of switching to the substitute is low.
