It's a good deal. Apple One for the family includes the boosted versions of the various media apps (Music, TV, News, etc.) plus more storage. I would never pay for a sub to WSJ or The Times or Globe & Mail or LA Times, but they are all included in News+ plus many more specialty, long-form, and even some local outlets. It's also encouraging that Apple actually pays participating publications real money, and (supposedly) without much additional effort. Quoting Semafor: A spokesperson for Time said that Apple News has become “one of our most important partners and delivers 7-figures of revenue for TIME annually,” adding that the publication garnered 5 million unique visitors from Apple News last month. The revenue and audience numbers have been similar at major Condé Nast publications, including Wired and Vanity Fair. https://www.semafor.com/article/05/19/2024/as-clicks-dry-up-for-news-sites-could-apples-news-app-be-a-lifeline https://www.semafor.com/article/05/19/2024/as-clicks-dry-up-... Of course, Apple may change the terms, and these pubs don't "own the customer" if the gateway is controlled by Cupertino, but 7-figure revenue really helps these organizations stay afloat.
