German site Macerkopf reports that the initial two-week free trial of The Daily appears to have been extended to February 28th. When The Daily was originally released on February 2nd, users were provided with a free two-week trial period, scheduled to end February 16th. Many speculated that this free trial was at least partly offered due to the new in-app subscription feature used by The Daily requiring the as-yet-unreleased iOS 4.3. It is unclear whether this two-week extension is being offered by the developer, News Corp, for promotional purposes or is connected to a possible delay in the release of iOS 4.3. [via Mac Rumors]

I’m glad. So far, they’ve done a good job of fixing things, and I do like the format for the most part. I have yet to read any “right-wing nuttery” that some who probably haven’t even looked at it accuse it of being. There is room for improvement as in all new things, but I do like it better than most of the “periodical” formats I’ve seen so far.
I wish it could be judged for what it is and not just slagged-off by left wing nutters.
I have lots of news sources/apps on my iOS devices from NPR to The Daily.
