WSJ Doesn’t Buy Into Amazon’s ‘Buy Once, Read Everywhere’ Plans

paidContent: "Earlier this month, I told an Amazon (NSDQ: AMZN) VP the aspect that bothered me most as a Kindle user was the inability to access my subscriptions across the e-reader platform.

(NYSE: NYT) reply to my question about whether it would be taking part initially wasn’t a straight up or down: 'We’ll be announcing our bundle details when we launch the details of our paid model.' The NYT is the top-selling Kindle newspaper."
