Future reports £5 million in sales of iPad digital magazines

Robert Andrews for PaidContent.org:

Magazine publisher Future hinted it will upgrade its digital strategy at scale later this year, as it announced impressive sales thanks to Apple’sz [sic] iTunes Newsstand. “Sales of digital editions on Apple devices have passed £5 million ($8 million) in the period since the Apple Newsstand was launched in October 2011,” the company reported in Thursday’s interim trading update.

Good news for Future, which has made a huge transition to digital publishing on the iPad in the past year.
