European Papers Irked By Apple's ITunes-Only Pay Plan -AP Last update: 2/7/2011 12:32:14 PM DOW JONES NEWSWIRES Newspapers in at least five European countries have received letters from Apple Inc. (AAPL) in recent weeks informing them of plans to require that all newspaper subscriptions for the iPad be bought through the U.S. giant's iTunes service, The Associated Press reported Monday. The European Newspaper Publishers' Association, a trade group, said in a statement on its website that it was calling on technology companies to ensure that newspaper subscribers "continue to enjoy access to news content on tablets and other online services, without any restrictive conditions." Francine Cunningham, the association's executive director, told The AP that Apple indicated it would charge a commission for subscriptions sold through iTunes, which in some cases was 30% of the overall subscription price. A spokesman for Apple in London didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from The AP.
