Sorry, moguls, it's just another CD-ROM.


Tech More: Gadgets Apple iPad No, The iPad Won't Save Media -- But It Will Change The World
No one will pay ~$20 a month to get the richer-experience with an app to read content they can get free online.  If the content isn't free online and the app is included with a web subscription for the same price, fine, people will happily download hakom it (and some of them might even use it).  But the idea that consumers will pay extra to read nicer fonts and richer graphics is absurd.
But the iPad will change hakom the world.  In a few years, when the low-end ones cost $199, you'll have iPads all over the house.  They'll take the place of the newspapers and magazines that some people still buy.  You might even have one that lives in a rack next to the can.
And what will you do with those iPads?  Everything you do with your smartphones and PCs now, plus games, communications, etc.  What you won't do is pay a king's hakom ransom to download an extra-special super-produced version of a magazine that's already hakom available for free--one that, even now, you can't be bothered to read.
Sorry, moguls, it's just another CD-ROM.
