????蘋果（Apple）最近針對出版行業(yè)推出了新的訂閱計劃——包括一鍵式購買以及過濾垃圾郵件等，喜歡這項訂閱計劃的消費者,，可能很難理解出版商們?yōu)楹尾辉附邮茉撚媱潯?/p> ????于是,，出版商們開始使用比喻這一“重磅炸彈”對蘋果進行攻擊。以下是近來一些新聞報道的節(jié)選： ? “過去一些年里,，傳統(tǒng)出版商們一直像中學里的乖乖女,，一直被人們忽視，而那些新生則吸引了大家的全部注意,?！薄骶S?卡爾，《紐約時報》（New York Times） ? “他們（指蘋果——譯注）就好比你中學時的漂亮女友,，無緣無故就跟你翻臉,。”一位出版界高管抱怨道,?！段鱽?摩西，MediaWeek ?

????It's not easy to explain to customers who like the sound of Apple's (AAPL) new subscription plan -- from one-click purchases to protection from junk mail -- why it's a deal breaker for publishers. ????So they've turned to the most powerful weapon in their literary arsenal -- the metaphor. A sample from Monday's news stories: ? "Traditional print publishers have spent the past few years cast in the role of the nice old-fashioned girl in high school who was ignored while more recent arrivals got all the attention." -- David Carr, the New York Times ? "They're the beautiful girlfriend you had in high school who was a bitch for no apparent reason," grumbled one publishing executive. -- Lucia Moses, MediaWeek ? Richard Jones, the co-founder of Last.fm, put it more bluntly: "Apple just ____ over online music subs for the iPhone." -- Josh Halliday, the Guardian ????For more substantive analysis of the publisher's predicament, see Frédéric Filloux's Monday Note. |
