In what should be a shock to no-one, News Corp’s experiment in iPad-only publishing is set to officially close down on December 15.

It was a terribly ambitious venture in digital publishing and one that hopefully will rise again for News Corporation. We need more beautiful things when it comes to digital publishing.
