Time mag iPad edition…$259.48 a year. Cough.

I’m no mathematician, but the news that Time magazine is bringing out an iPad edition…at $4.99 an issue…weekly……is a bit of a shocker.
No printing costs, no distribution costs, no storage costs, still has ads..

So…One year’s subscription of the printed edition for $20, or the iPad version for, er, $259.48.

Best of luck with that one.

    Are they offering free nuts? That might just swing it.
