Is there a way to have all my magazines and newspapers displayed in the newsstand?

 

Currentlly they are split across two apps: Zinio and Newsstand.

Unless Zinio themselves go over to Newsstand (and from their point of view, they would have to create an individual app for every single magazine they do for every language etc as this is how newsstand work, which would be pretty big task), I can't see this happening anytime soon. Though I can see more indivdual publishers putting their mags on Newsstand themselves, especially larger ones such as Haymarket.

I buy quite a few magazines from newsstand and would buy what hifi if it was available, to use my iTunes account to pay just makes it easier. It's also nice to have all my magazines in one place.

One prob is it's v v expensive for us, as Apple does like to take a v v serious wedge...
