Hearst president David Carey says the publishing corporation is on target to reach a total of more than one million digital subscribers by the end of next year. Close to 400,000 tablet owners have already purchased subscriptions, with current sign-ups increasing at a rate of around 10 percent monthly— which Carey predicts as a consistent growth factor through 2012.
