That's how I found out about it, and I imagine they'll be promoting it periodically.<br /><br />I'm going to use it a lot, I basically live there anyway :PShanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526065680698553188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-597330685028834268.post-66036937644302535792011-03-28T09:50:53.865-04:002011-03-28T09:50:53.865-04:00That's my understanding, yeah.

I haven't tried it, but they already offer a free in-store wi-fi service with Wall St. Journal, NY Times, USA Today, iTunes downloads, etc. and they're just adding Marvel's "Digital Comics Unlimited" service to it. Last time I checked DCU (unfortunate acronym), the issues were mostly at least six months old but it's still cool since new readers won't care about that.Jeff Metznerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14999238508906021766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-597330685028834268.post-64658317406665667942011-03-28T08:44:52.287-04:002011-03-28T08:44:52.287-04:00That does sound cool.

I could go to a Starbucks with my laptop, order my coffee, etc. and then access their subscription to Marvel digital and read comics there for free? I'll plan to check that out in April. I'm intersted to see and hear how the Starbucks people promote this.pghheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04489405735995561809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-597330685028834268.post-37151074728959301522011-03-27T12:03:12.970-04:002011-03-27T12:03:12.970-04:00Marvel's digital comics service (the subscript...Marvel's digital comics service (the subscription service, not the app that lets you buy & download issues individually) will be available for free on Starbucks wi-fi starting April 23. I think this is a really smart way to reach out to a wider audience.Jeff Metznerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14999238508906021766noreply@blogger.com
