This sounds perilously close to resale price maintenance, which I believe is illegal. Maybe somebody with a bit of time on their hands should take it to the OFT.

There's already no weekly tv guide, now there's going to be no media news, no separate business section, and no monthly supplements. It all contributes to fewer reasons to buy or read The Observer, at a time when more people need to be given compelling reasons to do so. Is this just a drawn out process of death by a thousand cuts rather than close the paper in one fell swoop? What can they be hoping might happen if they limp along for a bit longer with an incomplete version of what its customers got used to?

It's the Aston Martin of phones, so why should anyone expect to pay Mondeo money for it? Its performance and gravitas command a premium price, and Apple are right to insist on this IMHO.

That is disappointing. I'm on of those pinning my hopes on Vodafone (my current provider) being cheaper when they launch. But what about 6 months down the line? Could things get more interesting then?

Hi Luke, I take your point - it doesn't matter how big your eyes are in the dark - but WPP are not doing too badly with digital are they?

Just because Sorrell and Murdoch have been a success in traditional media doesn't mean they have a clue about online, not surprised to see them both flipflop around.

People should be careful not to confuse paying for content, and paying for a range of benefits that result from a consumer/publisher relationship that includes a commitment to pay for content. You won't get consumers paying for words and pictures alone.
