Metro Launches Free E-Paper

Commuters can now get their free Metro online as well as on the train as it launches its new e-paper.

The e-Metro is powered by electronic publishing software from YUDU Media and enables users to turn pages with a click of the mouse, reports the Guardian.

Plus the digital edition has a range of interactive features including a note-making facility where readers can annotate the paper and a bookmarking option.

Users can also save the e-Metro to read it offline and can subscribe to receive each issue via email.

Metro’s operations director revealed that the new service is designed to appeal to a regular Metro reader who hasn’t been able to pick up a print edition on any given day.

Stuart Wood added: “e-Metro combines the strengths of digital publishing, the familiarity of our newspaper format and a simple delivery method to provide readers with a convenient new way of enjoying our quality content.”
