How about “Subscription 2.0” or something like “20-25/6”... or Project 2/3...
Texture and Apple... A...Gain !!! When will Pixelmags come out of hiding ???
In the last six months alone Apple has snapped up 20 to 25 businesses !!!
Maybe we are on the Readr... I mean Radar...???
(Tim Apple ...)
These aren't usually announced, the executive explained, because they're often small firms and Apple is "primarily looking for talent and intellectual property."
After spending on projects like its $1 billion secondary campus in Austin the company looks for targets of opportunity, Cook continued.
"If we have money left over, we look to see what else we [can] do," he commented. "We acquire everything that we need that can fit and has a strategic purpose to it. And so we acquire a company on average, every two to three weeks."

Pixelmags +
Sure would be nice to get that Ray of Sunshine thru the clouds Baby !!!
We could all use an Uplifting moment !!!... come on NK !!!

Pixelmags +
So if Texture ***Supposedly brought *200 Magazines to AN+... of which only *22 AN+ did ***NOT have... and AN+ already has/had *75 Magazines that Texture did ***NOT have...
***Who else Partnered up***
200 Mags -22 mags =178 Mags AN+ already had in their pocket + 75 more that Texture didn’t have = approx *250 Magazine titles !!! + Newspapers =*300 Magazine Titles as advertised!!!
(Did Texture really only bring 22 different Magazines to the table that AN+ did NOT have ???)
And that’s the US & Canada... release ONLY...!!!
Where will AN+ get the THOUSANDS of Magazine Titles that they will Need for their INTERNATIONAL march this Fall ???
Who went Quiet Baby ???
Pixelmags +
Another ***Apple / Texture*** article today !!!... I can’t wait until Pixelmags gets a Turn !!!...
It looks like “Texture had around 22 magazine titles that Apple News+ does not, and Apple News+ has about 75 titles that Texture didn't”...
Interesting!!!...
“Apple has added more titles to do with music, art, technology and sport. Its most significant additions are Scientific American plus BBC titles such as its science and gardening ones. The magazines it has lost since Texture closed include pretty big titles such as Smithsonian and GQ Style.
Yet Apple News+ has GQ. And while it doesn't have Martha Stewart Weddings, it has Martha Stewart Living. You can expect publishers who are trying out one title will bring in their others if the service is successful enough.”
Interesting!!!
“It is certainly true that a cross-platform service is better for us all than one solely reserved for Apple devices.”
Interesting!!!
The interactive feature is a game changer !!!
Pixelmags +
That’s it !!!... I’m gonna have to call Corporate today and get some answers !!!... Enough is Enough!!!
What was their Number again ???... I keep forgetting it !!!
The only Number that keeps coming to mind is ...($485)Mil-lion
I wonder if I can Text that number ???
Pixelmags +
“The ironclad nondisclosure agreements”... that sounds like something only a Kingmaker or Elephant Rider would be asked to sign...
West Coast Cannabis must mind altering... I hear it’s best while reading Fish & Stream... you know the Magazine with all the storefronts...
The Doc ordered me this White Jacket the other day... with Really long sleeves... the only problem was I couldn’t get my hands free to type... hmmmm

I just can’t believe the Enormity of AN+... if I was being interviewed on the news right now... you’d hear a lot of Beeps and a few more FN Beeps...!!!... I never sat the bench but now I have a taste of what it’s like...!!!
All the recent Publicity... All the recent Attention... the Revenue split(s)...$9.99... the Main Publishers... the Similarities to Pixelmags... the Differences... the future possibility of being bundled...
AN+ Service Numbers were NOT even included yesterday... the 200k+free trials... which didn’t include any of Textures 200k MAU...
***1.4b devices vs. 1.4b devices...
***300 vs. 10,000...

HITM
BIG things headed that way... BIG !!!
Pixelmags +
NDA’s are a Mofo... and from what I’ve read they are a BIG part of the AN+ deal !!!
NK’s no rookie... and If the Deal of a lifetime presented itself ( which we all
Hope is the case here) his lips would be MOB tight Baby !!!
Whoever cuts the check or whichever route we take North from here... I welcome with open arms and fat stack !!!
Is this a Party or a Wake Baby ???
Pixelmags +
Gotta love this Board !!!
The fun Never ends !!!
Pixelmags +
Again... All I know is what I read... So if you Google “Apple News Monetization”... and Read the articles what do you see???
I cannot find a single article that has a Happy Publisher... They have all been Extremely Frustrated... 2016...2017... 2018... even as recently as February 2019...!!!
*** Until April 10, 2019***
“Apple News+ monetization offers publishers a payout based on the proportionate share of user engagement, which may also shine light on the "minimum" that Apple is paying the publishers.”
What Changed ???... What Strategically Changed ???...
Impatiently Waiting!!
Pixelmags!!!
If I only could... then maybe I could get some sleep too !!!
All I know is what I read...
“Although the initial decision in this matter also concerned Solaris Power Cells, Inc., Solaris settled with the Commission after the initial decision issued. This notice does not apply to Solaris Power Cells, Inc.”
Impatiently waiting !!
Pixelmags!!!
Few recent Oreva articles

Speaking of Pixelmags and Apple... and Patents...what ever happened to...
*** iTravel***
https://www.patentlyapple.com/.a/6a0120a5580826970c0167685960bd970b-pi
“Apple's iTravel check-in system will work with Macs, but more importantly, with iOS devices such as the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Ticketing and identification information will be stored on the iOS device and transmitted, such as via near field communication, to another electronic device.-
***The handheld device may be used to check into flights, hotels, car rentals, cruises, trains, buses, and so forth”
If only all those Travelers had a Bundled package specifically designed for Travel...
Wasn’t there RECENTLY... as in 2019... as in the last month or so... mention of hospitality...travel... including bus...plane...train...and cruise ships... and PIXELMAGS...???...
... or was I dreaming with all the sleep I get these days ???
I mean what a perfect match for TRAVEL... Anytime sub/ Readr... 10,000 Magazines... Bundled into a package for the ***Traveler... International at that... bundled with music... games...News/Newspapers etc !!!...
We all know TEXTURE can’t handle the INTERNATIONAL footprint AN+ is striving for this Fall... 2019...
The BUNDLED Service Package for Traveling !!... bus,plane,train & cruise ships...
Put up the sign Baby!!!
Pixelmags +
All this Digital this and Digital Tools that... Pixelmags and Texture this ... and AN+ that... got me thinking... and digging...
“In this particular report we cover two granted patents. One covers smart fabrics, and the other covers a possible future digital periodical. In light of Apple News+ introduced yesterday, the granted patent is timely. Could Apple be thinking of marketing a future foldable iPad as a digital periodical device? Only time will tell.”
https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2019/03/apple-wins-patents-today-covering-a-foldable-digital-newspapermagazine-and-smart-fabrics.html
What a Great Article / Patent and trail all the way back to 2014...
AN+ is certainly gonna come alive !!!
Hopefully we join the Party someway... somehow!!!
I mean just AN+ is expecting $425,000,000 in ***AN+ Revs alone*** each Q within 24 months !!!... wow !!!
...then $675,000,000 Quarterly... WOW!!!...HOW...???... just with Texture???
Texture alone can’t do this !!!...
Their current digital tools can’t do this either ...!!!
Put the for-sale sign up !!!
Pixelmags +
I’ll rather have $25,000,000 than 2,500,000... like I said before... dose spelling and Arithmetick... count over here... obviously NOT...

WHY is Apple and Pixelmags BOTH hiring ANDROID ENGINEERS ???...
Pixelmags +
How is Tim Apple and AN+ gonna do $1.7 Billion by 2022...???... and $2.7 Billion by 2024... ???... again... they don’t even have the necessary Digital Tools according to the Publishers...
