Following the announcement of the passing of Steve Jobs earlier today, the editorial staff of Bloomberg Businessweek put everything aside and created a special issue covering all things Jobs, out tomorrow (Friday, October 7).

Taking Away Choice
—  

Nevermind the conflicting news on whether or not Hearst has gotten a special deal from Apple in terms of how to deal with subscriptions — I don’t think it did, as is reflected in this article’s update — but what bothers me is the following bit: The Hearst deal covers corresponding apps for Esquire, Popular [...]

And Here Come the Subscriptions

Sure, most publishers are not very happy with the terms of Apple’s new subscription option on the iTunes App Store, but it’s not stopping some to offer them anyway. Bonnier’s Popular Science is one of the first titles to offer an in-app subscription option since the launch of the service, and it’s certainly very attractive: [...]

We all knew it was coming, and here it is: Apple has now officially introduced a subscriptions option to the iTunes App Store, letting all publishers charge for multiple issues over a set period of time, just like The Daily. Do they offer what publishers wanted? Well, it’s a compromise. From the official announcement: [W]hen [...]

The Daily

Yes, the long-awaited The Daily is out, and as you could probably tell from the amount of posts I devoted to it, you’ve probably guessed that I was rather excited about the project.

The Daily to Launch Next Week

I retweeted the news earlier today, but in case you missed it, Rupert Murdoch’s The Daily will finally launch next Wednesday (February 2) at an event in New York that will include Murdoch and Apple’s Vice President of Internet Services, Eddy Cue. The Daily was originally supposed to launch earlier this month, but the launch [...]

The Future of the iPad, Courtesy of the Atavist (Not Really)

Let me start by saying that I think the upcoming Atavist app looks like a very interesting one, and I’m liking what it wants to do (raise awareness and give a venue for long-form journalism and writing) — you can read more about it in this piece on the Fast Company site). I just find [...]

Apple Not Sexy Yet
—  

You know that big news that came out yesterday about a proper uncensored Playboy iPad app coming out in March, which would mean that Apple had changed its stance on preventing adult material to be sold through the iTunes App Store? Well, looks like everyone was wrong. Engadget added the following update to its original [...]

Kiss That June Issue of Wired Goodbye
—  

You may remember that when I took a look at the latest issue of Wired on iPad, I mentioned how I noticed that I no longer had access to the June issue. I regularly delete the issues after I’m done reading them because of all the space they take up, and I still had access [...]

What’s the Deal with The Daily?
—  

I’m starting to get really confused with all of the conflicting reports we’re getting about Rupert Murdoch’s much hyped The Daily. Initially word was that the publisher was teaming up with Apple to produce the innovative daily — one of the innovations is that it would be pushed to your device — but this latest [...]
