I don't know about your screen - but mine has 20+ bookmarks, 10+ open tabs, and (currently) about six different applications visible on my screen. 5 seconds ago I was on a Tab looking at the Presidential Debates before I came over to HN - 5 seconds from now I"ll be on OmniFocus, which is visible 2" to the right of the browser screen. I read the web on my laptop, differently than I consume content iPad. When I read "The Magazine" it launched the App, and it took over 100% of my iPad experience, and I spent the next 20 minutes reading through the four (excellent) articles, completely free of distraction. I'm willing to pay $2 for 8, carefully curated, selected, edited, and written articles from Marco Arment, presented to me on my iPad. Those 4 articles, on Life/Love/Technology, on Volatiles vs Stables, and the impact on how to manage engineering companies, on the concept of "Voice" and the linkBlob/Fireball format, and the schism in Geeks who Love Sports, and those who don't and really, what is the central essence of being a Geek - are timeless, and I'm confident I'll re-read in months to come. Finally - I love the idea of finding an outlet to sponsor those who contribute so much of the great content that I consume, in this structured way. I hope "The Magazine" is very successful, and provides an income for those who write such great material.
