Digital Comics

ComiXology Troubles
The digital comics app ComiXology no longer supports in-app purchases on iOS devices such as the iPhone and iPad. Android users running the ComiXology app downloaded from Google’s Playstore are also affected. They now have to register with Paypal or Amazon’s payment solution to buy new comics. Amazon who purchased ComiXology in April 2014, is avoiding revenue sharing with Apple and Google. ComiXology is one of the most popular comics app. Amazon’s new policy reflects the existing platform and turf war in the mobile app environment. Comic readers and publishers are collateral damage caught in the crossfire.
