SE and Which license do I need?

Single Edition

 

I understand I can buy more than 1 SE license.

 

  • This allows me to submit to iTunes?

 

  • Is this then available on Apple News Stand?

 

  • If not why do I need to submit it to iTunes?

 

Which license do I need?

 

I'm looking to create publications for no more than 5 clients, each would have a quartly publication. Making that a total of 20 publcations.

 

I'll also have clients that may want a one off publication.

 

In total all publications will not have more than 6,000 downloads.

 

They would need to be available for either free or paid perhaps even a subscription in Apple's News Stand.

 

Would I need a Apple dev paid membership for this?

 

Am I correct in thinking that if there were 6,000 downloads in total, the cost would be $0.30 X 6,000 = $1,800?

 

If the same account holder downloads the same publication multiple times is there a charge everytime?

 

Thanks

    Newsstand requires a subscription which eliminates Single Edition.

     

     

     

    Single Edition apps will appear in the app store only.

     

     

     

    AFAIK, if you want to act as an agency you’re going to need to contact Adobe and I do not believe they’re going to say yes without a compelling reason.

     

     

     

    Each of those clients will need their own Apple account and Adobe account if they want to do subscriptions.

     

     

     

    The other thought is to simply produce single editions and pull the old versions quarterly.

    I would never allow anyone to publish my work with their own developer account nor would I publish someone else’s work with mine.. What if you stop paying Apple?

     

     

     

    The Apple Developer account is $99/year.

     

     

     

    There is no limit to Single Edition apps.

    They publish those magazines and you can bet they have an enterprise license.

    Keeping in Mind your requirements, I would suggest you go in for DPS Professional Edition.  While using DPS Pro, you may create 5 Multi issue apps for your 5 clients and then publish their content (All Issues) to the app using separate application id's. You may also enable newsstand using DPS Professional Edition. Also there is a certain amount of free folio downloads that you get with Professional edition for the first year.

    Yes, so 5 different Apps with 4 issues each. Application id is a term that you'll get to know as you use DPS, it is the adobe id from which you publish your content using Folio Producer. When using Professional or Enterprise accounts, you create separate Application id's for separate apps and then upload your content/publish your content to and from this id.
