Isn't that what products like Apple News are?
- CydeWeys 7y agoApple News+ isn't exactly the same thing. It's more targeted at magazines, and doesn't have most of the relevant newspapers on board. But there are other issues: 1. It's run by Apple, which takes a hefty cut, and is thus oriented towards whatever is in Apple's best interests. It should be run by a consortium of newspapers instead and work in their best interest. 2. It's only available on Apple devices, which I don't have. 3. It has an app-based model. That's not what I want. What I want is an SSO passport login that lets me into all of the publisher's pre-existing sites. I don't want an app or a new site or anything, I just want a login that works on the existing newspaper sites.
