Mirroring the Netflix model, magazine readers will be able to purchase a set number of titles for a set fee. Want three titles a month? Pay $3.95. Five? It'll cost you 7.95. And so on with eight or more costing a buck a title . The beauty is that you can change which magazines you order each month, choosing from more than 300 titles in their "network."
What if newspapers did a version of the same? I know several people like me who get two newspapers delivered each day, and some three. They'd love to pay a flat fee to one company and have the option of every once in a while getting a paper for their hometown or the place they plan to visit.
It's probably not a practical idea but in a world where people want more choice, the limits to such seem glaring.
