Apple In Negotiations With Publishers To Launch A Digital Newsstand

Bloomberg reports Apple is in talks with publishers to create a digital newsstand.  The newsstand will be separate from Apple's iBooks and App Stores.  This new store will allow users to subscribe to magazines and newspapers instead of buying 1 issue at a time on the App Store.  Publishers rumored to be in talks with Apple include Time Warner Inc., Conde Nast, Hearst Corp, and News Corp.  Details are still being negotiated, but revenue splitting is probably the biggest topic.
