Is Apple Helping To Create iPad-Only Newspaper?
Gizmodo reports that Rupert Murdoch thinks that the iPad is the beginning of the future of media.
Steve Jobs agrees. That's why—according to WWD's sources—News Corp. is releasing an iPad-only newspaper called The Daily.
Created with Apple's help, says the Guardian:
According to reports, there will be no "print edition" or "web edition"; the central innovation,
developed with assistance from Apple engineers, will be to dispatch the publication automatically to an iPad or any of the growing number of similar devices.
The new tablet-only newspaper would use the new App Store subscription model at 99 cents a week, about $4.25 per month.
The app may go in beta this December, while WWD suggests that Murdoch himself could join Steve Jobs on its 2011 public presentation.
