Apple Wants Big Newspapers to Join Its Subscription Service [Report]

Apple is trying to get big newspapers like the New York Times, Washington Post, and WSJ to join its magazine subscription service, reports Recode.

Apple has been talking to some of the biggest newspapers in the U.S. about adding their stories to Texture, the magazine app Apple bought in March. Apple executives, led by content boss Eddy Cue, have reached out to the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post about joining the app, according to people familiar with the conversations, which began this summer.

In March, Apple acquired Texture, an online magazine subscription service that provides access to over 200 magazines for $9.99/month. In April, rumors claimed that Apple was planning to launch a subscription based News service that would include access to the magazines currently offered by Texture.
