AOP: digital edition move by ABC is insufficient

The UK Association of Online Publishers reckons the UK Audit Bureau of Circulation's change of policy over digital editions "does not afford publishers a good enough reason to have digital circulation figures audited by ABC or ABCE". ABC have ruled that digital edition figures may now be included on the print certificate, but not as part of the crucial "headline figure", the value considered definitive for circulation. Includes an interesting quote from the manager of Telegraph.co.uk: "Tabloid, broadsheet and digital -- same product, different format!"
