Reading Newspapers and Magazines on Your iPad

Reading newspapers and magazines on the iPad is not like reading newspapers and magazines in any other electronic form. The iPad experience is really slick, but only you can decide whether it’s worth paying the tab (in the cases where you do have to pay).


There are two paths you might follow to subscribe to or read a single issue of a newspaper or magazine. The first path includes several fine publishing apps worth checking out, including USA TODAY, The Wall Street Journal, Time magazine, The New York Times, Reuters News Pro, BBC News, and Popular Science.


Also highly recommend is the free Zinio app, which offers publications including Rolling Stone, The Economist, Macworld, PC Magazine, Car and Driver, National Geographic, Spin, Business Week, Sporting News, and many more. You can buy single issues of a magazine or subscribe, and sample and share some articles without a subscription.


You have to pay handsomely or subscribe to some of these newspapers and magazines, which you find not in the iBookstore but in the regular App Store. You also see ads (somebody has to pay the freight).


The second path, Newsstand, is available in iOS 5. This handy icon on your Home screen purports to gather all your newspaper and magazine subscriptions in a single place.


You purchase subscriptions in a new section of the App Store, which you can also get to by tapping Newsstand on your Home screen and then tapping the Store button, which opens the App Store to the new Subscriptions section.
