Has anyone lost acess to digital Stereophile after the IOS 8 upgrade? I have problems accessing and keep receiving a message to reload the app, which does not work. I contacted Apple who said contact Zinio who said contact the publisher Stereophiile and Stereophile said contact Zinio all over again. Looks like an infinite loop starting. BTW, it does show in my purchases in the Apple Itunes store with invoice number, etc., which I shared but to no avail. Anyone else having a problem?

As I reported last Friday in Critics' Corner, the Adobe application that we
use to prepare the Apple Newsstand edition, was incompatible with iOS8.
(The Zinio edition is not effected.) Adobe has supplied us with a new
version of their software and we have submitted the revised Stereophile app
to Apple for their approval. As soon as Apple gives the okay, I will post
the news.

I had a Stereophile digital subscription but immediately took a strong disliking to the Zinio approach since you can't download an issue and as far as I know can only access it while you are a paid subscriber. Not at all user friendly, which is why I didn't renew.

TAS gives you a PDF you can easily download and save for future reading, but the quality has gone downhill, in my opinion.
