The fact that only a few digital magazines have managed to find a way to offer subscription-based service is absurd. This should've been a given right out of the gate. The problem, as I understand it, lies in the fact that until now, no products were sold through iTunes which could be recurring, i.e. subscription-based. So for the time being, occasional exceptions are being made, although the majority of digital magazines (Wired, Martha Stewart, Time, Pop Mech, etc.) are still priced iteratively. This is absurd. I'm working on one for a client right now, and for at least a couple months they won't have a subscription option available. I just hope the project doesn't get canned after a couple months because of a poor sales structure.
- In other words, iTunes isn't really set up for dealing with subscriptions. But how hard would it really be?gramme
