Download ZINIO’s award-winning Android app, trusted by millions of magazine readers around the world. For over a decade, Zinio has delivered over half a billion digital issues in over 200 countries. And in that time, a handful of iPad-equipped magazines have signed up for it, even though Apple's agreement involves several major concessions-including a 30-percent cut of all subscriptions sold on the device going to Apple, and a rather cumbersome protocol for subscribers determining. There’s probably a ton of Retina goodness waiting for you.Ī quick aside, the Fast Company magazine is only 12.00 for an entire year subscription. ZINIO is the world’s first and largest digital newsstand, giving you access to magazine content from the best publishers across the globe. It's been three days since Apple debuted its digital-subscriptions iPad app for periodical publishers. If it’s been a while since you’ve updated your apps, it’s time to go hit up the App Store and update. But if you were already willing to download 300 MB magazines to your iPad, the extra 50-100MB won’t be much of a deal breaker. The differences between the Retina-ready magazines and the non-Retina magazines is astounding.Īs always, file sizes have increased with the Retina-capable magazines. Currently I subscribe to Fast Company, Wired, and the New Yorker, and I’ve only got the New Yorker left without Retina support. If you have a new iPad, and you’re big on Newsstand, you’ve probably noticed just how illegible the digital magazines can be without Retina support. Today, the magazine is now already digitally available seven issues a year and can be downloaded using various platforms including iPad, Android, Mac and PC. Some apps, especially those heavy on generated text, can get away with non-Retina support in the short term, but the Newsstand properties are suffering from the lack of Retina support at this point. La Cucina Italiana has been cooking classic Italian food and dishing out wonderful insights on Italian cuisine through the publication since 1929. Late last week Fast Company took its magazine Retina (it’s fantastic by the way), and today Condé Nast has updated two of its more popular magazines, GQ and Wired, to include Retina support. Sadly, it’s taking a couple of weeks for publishers to roll out Retina versions of their properties to Newsstand. If one thing is going to shine on the new iPad, it’s digital magazines.
