Is this the magazine stand of the future? Don’t get me wrong, I am thrilled to be selling iTunes cards in my newsagencies. They are working well as an impulse purchase, especially with a greeting card. They are working better than when we were selling CDs.
iTunes cards are as good as music since that is why people buy them. So, the comparison with CD sales is relevant. Whether they will be compared to magazine sales will depend on the consumer and publisher uptake of the iPad here in Australia. It will also depend on whether we have any break-out new publishers creating digital only product which appeals to the Australian masses.
Since we can’t sell the devices, selling the cards and top-up is the closest we can get.
Hi Mark,
who do you get the itunes cards from??would you mind giving me their details? cheers Dominic
Dominic, e-pay is the supplier. I’ll email you the details.
