Launch Magazine was a CD-Rom based music and entertainment magazine that began publishing in 1995. 54 numbered and two unnumbered issues were released, along with several special event only or promotional discs.
Issues 1 to 8 came in jewel cases, 9 to 16 came in Digipaks, and all issues until the end of the run were released in disc sleeves.
The discs featured interviews with musicians and actors, music videos and songs (early issues had them in CD Audio), movie trailers, gaming footage, video game and movie reviews, plus game demos. The discs were Windows and Macintosh hybrid discs that relied heavily on QuickTime for media playback. Only discs with gaming content (trailers, footage or demos) are acceptable in Redump. Issues 52 to 54 do not mention any game content in their back covers, but they feature a PlayStation 2 logo, so they may still have trailers, videos, or game reviews.
