It looks like The Financial Times has found a way to circumvent giving Apple a 30% cut of its profits made from magazine subscriptions: through the use of a web app. The magazine has just launched the platform agnostic version of its digital magazine that will “bypass Apple's iTunes Store, Google's Android Market and other distributors to secure a direct relationship with readers”. Now why didn't other magazines think of this earlier. A web app makes perfect sense for publishers who don't want to give away their money to app stores in the first place.
