It's increasingly clear that the future of publishing—for content providers—will be to relinquish control and publish their content directly to third-party distribution and engagement platforms.

- x0x0 11y agoI can't possibly believe publishers could be stupid enough to partner with Blendle. Blendle clearly, as demonstrated by the effort to duplicate content down to the pixel, intend to be a middleman and, if they get popular, control the pubs. If they were a SSO solution that allowed you to pay and see an article on the original pubs it might be a good deal. After seeing what happened with apple and itunes/music, or amazon and kindle/ebooks, I just can't see how content makers are willing to make the same error. Letting a third party own your relationship with users never ends well.
