Publisher Conde Nast has worked out a deal with Apple to sell subscriptions for The New Yorker within its app.
An updated version of that magazine’s iPad app gives lets users subscribe to the weekly magazine for $5.99 a month, or the equivalent of a $1.50 an issue. That’s a steep discount from the app’s old model, which only sold individual issues for $4.99 a pop.
Conde Nast is selling an annual subscription to the iPad app for $59.99; a yearly subscription to the print version of the magazine costs $69.95. Very important: Conde says print subscribers will get iPad access for free.
Several other Conde Nast magazines should have their own apps soon, providing in-app subscription purchases. These will include Wired, Golf Digest, Glamour, Vanity Fair, Self, Allure and GQ. Magazines offered on a monthly basis will cost $19.99 for an annual subscription rate and $1.99 per-issue.
