  • The legendary magazine

    More than a magazine, THE WIRE is an obligated reference for those who know (and don't know) about futuristic music. For me this is more than a simple magazine.
  • Really excellent

    This is a great app. The fonts are very clear to me. Nicely done!
  • Almost Awesome

    There are so many things done right with this app, but please increase the legibility of text.
  • Holding off

    I'll lunge at this when the text is legible. As is: I'd rather stare at the sun.
  • A must have...

    Sure the resolution needs to be bumped up a bit. I am sure they will get around to this. It's nice that they have their own stand alone app for subscribers. Oh... And the searchable back issues... That's just amazing.
  • The future is here...but needs higher scan resolution

    I feel complicit in the death of paper publishing, but this is just wonderful. The Wire has been my favorite mag for over 10 years, but it's expensive, can be hard to find, and U.S. Subscriptions offer no savings at over $100 a year. $5.99 a month for access to both the current issue and the entire digital archive (with search!!!) is a STEAL.

    The only slight hiccup is that the resolution of these files isn't great; with how much The Wire loves its tiny fonts, I'm looking at slightly blurry text 95% of the time. Fun for a glaucoma simulator, but not so much for long form reading. Please increase the Rez, guys!

  • Complete!

    Now my iPad is complete. I can't believe I'm reading the best music magazine here! Keep the issues coming!
    Cheers!
