Thrillpower! Tharg releases 2000AD iDevice app
Digital Progs on day-and-date release
There's a new 2000AD iPad app out right in time for the latest Programme's Wednesday publication date.
The app, which also runs on the iPhone and iPod Touch, is free and comes with a gratis 69-page sampler. Like what you see and you can continue buying Progs on a one-off basis for £1.99 a go, or save a bit by taking out a one-, three- or 12-month subscription for £8, £21 and £75, respectively.
Subs currently bundle a one, two and three months' back issues as freebies, respectively.
Squaxx Dek Thargo with Android devices are out of luck - there's no dedicated app yet, though individual issues can be bought and download from the 2000AD website.
Or from the likewise Rebellion-owned Clickwheel, which sells them for less - £1.49 an issue; £62.49 for an annual sub - but you have a wait a week for the latest issue to appear.
You can download the 2000AD app from iTunes. ®

I think us Android fans need to organise a few Rigelian Hotshots for whomever is responsible for not sanctioning our version.
Re: 2000AD
No.
In 1999ad, they had a reader vote about what to call the title in the following years.
The overwhelming majority voted to keep it as 2000ad. So they did.
Printed code
They need to link this to the printed copy, so you can enter a unique code from that to get the digital version for free. Marvel have been doing this on some comics recently and it's a great idea.
