Next Issue magazine service comes to iPad, offers all you can eat magazine subscriptions

Next Issue magazine service comes to iPad, offers all you can eat magazine subscriptionsThe Next Issue has finally arrived on the iPad and it set to offer a Netflix style service that could transform the way you access glossy magazines. Up until this point, you could buy separate magazine issues through Newsstand or a lot of magazines ignored that route and went for stand alone apps. Now however that is about to change with Next Issue offering a monthly subscription service allowing you to read as many available magazines as you want for a flat monthly fee.

Only Next Issue offers the combination of unlimited access plans and organization of your personal library of magazines from a single app, delivering a truly exceptional reading experience. Next Issue's catalog of magazines from top tier publishers come to life with digital extras such as videos, bonus photography, interactive features, live web links and more.

With the launch of Next Issue for iPad and addition of Bon Appetit, Brides, Golf Digest, GQ, Self, Vogue and Wired, the Next Issue for iPad catalog includes 39 titles with many more expected later in the year.

"With the unlimited plans offering access to our entire catalog from a single intuitive App and personal library, we're delivering magazines the way consumers want to read them," said Morgan Guenther, CEO of Next Issue Media. "It's like having an entire magazine rack stocked with only the very best titles, but you can browse or read any issue, any time, on your iPad."

"Customers will see their magazines come to life in spectacular fashion," said John Loughlin, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Hearst Magazines. "Next Issue for iPad delivers an immersive and engaging experience, while the technology seems to disappear and get out of the way."

The Next Issue app is available in the App Store today only for users in the United States. There are two subscription models available. The first comes in at $9.99 a month; this gives you access to monthly and bi-monthly magazines and back issues. The more expensive $14.99 a month subscription includes weekly magazine titles such as Entertainment Weekly, The New Yorker and a few others. If you are still on the fence, you can sign up for a free 30 day trial.

The question is, would you be willing to pay a monthly subscription to gain access to regular magazine publications? I would say that if the content available suits your reading habits then it is an excellent proposition. The cost of a printed magazine is nearly the cost of a month?s subscription so it does make good economic sense. What do you think?
