If you love newspapers but hate inky fingers and creepy delivery people, you might be interested in taking a gander at NewspaperDirect’s PressDisplay.com Website. Touting “500 newspapers from 70 countries in 37 languages,” just as they appear in print, PressDisplay.com is now available free for a month for iPhone users.
“The iPhone is the perfect mobile platform for PressDisplay.com because its rich user interface complements the advanced navigation and browsing capabilities of PressDisplay,” said Alexander Kroogman, CEO of NewspaperDirect. “But what is really exciting is that, for the first time, we can mobile-enable all of our dozens of SmartEdition publications, giving their subscribers anywhere/anytime access to their digital editions.”
After your free month is up, plans range from $2.75 for a single paper (or “issue” as it’s called) to between $9.95 and $199.95 per month for various levels of access.
Nowadays there are many technological solutions that allow the distribution and the sale of newspapers via iPhone. Talking about that, it is possible to quote also the newest application created in this field: its name is Pagestreamer and it has been especially conceived for publishers who can reach many new readers all around the world though their iPhone. By doing that it will be more easy for them to study usage hours and readers distribution other than controlling subscriptions. This can represent a great change in the story of the newsapers industry especially in this period of crisis. It is also to say that Pagestreamer is a perfectly optimized and pleasant application that is also very easy to use. The novelty is based on the fact that there is also the possibility of listening to a multilingual podcast version of each mobile newspaper story, read aloud by a high quality synthetic voice, directly on the iPhone.
