Wired App downloaded over 24,000 in a day     

Jun 1, 2010 News

The Wired iPad app costs $4.99 — the same as the ink-and-paper edition — and includes articles and features from the month’s issue. A new app will appear each month. The print version of Wired magazine sells around 82,000 single copies each month and has around 672,000 subscribers.

Geek mag Wired sold 24,000 iPad apps on its first day in the App Store.

When GQ was released as an iPad app not too long ago, its demographic didn’t respond nearly as robustly. GQ has sold 57,000 copies of its iPhone and iPad apps combined over the past six months; apparently, the lad mag’s readers prefer hard copy to downloaded content.

Being a reader would you prefer a non physical magazine like this or stick to the same old hard copy version of the magazine.
