A few weeks ago we wrote about Amazon courting magazine publishers to offer single issue and subscription based products with the launch of their new tablet. It looks like Hearst, Conde Nast, and Meredith have signed on to have their magazines as part of Amazon’s great ecosystem. This will give users a taste of popular magazines such as Wired, GQ, Cosmopolitan, Car and Driver, and more. Amazon will be taking a %30 cut out of each sale as part of the agreements and the publishers will keep the rest. Not only will magazines be part of the new tablet, but if you have the Amazon app on your Android or iOS device, you are good to go!
