Variety turns the digital page

Digital VarietyVariety buries the lede: the trade's paywall has been dropped, so now "every story, article or item is available for free." Well not quite everything. The news is tucked onto the end of a debut announcement for Digital Variety, an electronic edition that resembles the print edition. You click to turn pages just like you would reading the trade paper at your desk. The digitized pages are only available to subscribers or for a fee.
