The Daily is a good idea in principle — as tablet marketshare goes up, so will news media on tablets. The issue is the experience continues to be subpar compared to free alternatives. Slow loading times, laggy page turns, and a locked portrait orientation are deal breakers when there are plenty of free (really great) ways to consume the news.
