From 24 November, but worth flagging up this project in the US: a consortium of magazine publishers which includes Time Inc. and Condé Nast are to build an online magazine newsstand in ‘multiple digital formats’, reports the New York Times.
“The formation of a new company to run the online newsstand – sometimes characterized as an ‘iTunes for magazines’ – may be announced in early December. Time, Condé Nast, Hearst, and Meredith all intend to be equity partners in the new company, although the deals have not yet been signed.”
