What makes the iPad so different?

It´s not a PC or laptop at all

It´s the first reading-watching-listening-

surfing-entertainment-email-device to go –

for the couch, the bed, the park, the bar.......

Come on, isn´t it just a big iPhone?

NO!

For the first time publishers can deliver the

full reader experience like in print on a true

mobile device (if not an electronic device at all)

Why is it so smart for Publishers?

Branding

Easy and effective to produce

New opportunities for the ad business

The gate to new target groups

Page 17: WoodWing Digital Magazine Press Conference

The crucial question:

Will they be willing to pay?

The Answer: obviously YES

68 % of the 25-34 year olds and 59 % of the

35-44 year olds say, they are willing to pay for

news and magazines specially formatted for

e-readers (Source: comScore)

Many publishers are already successful with

and on the iPhone

Should Publishers be afraid of Apple?

Apple to control content and the fee is too

high?

It´s the same discussion book publishers had

with Amazon and Apple

And it´s the same like with the music industry
