I'm sure people have paid for daily news and want them on the reader.
Otherwise, take an instance, if you live in NYC:
http://www.nytimes.com/
A lot of short news and links to full stories. Somewhere on the very
bottom of the page, lives the rss link to the page:
http://www.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/index.html
Imagine that you are interested in local news, so you take:
http://feeds.nytimes.com/nyt/rss/NYRegion
To get there. one does not need to fulfill the same route every day.
Rss feed is always the same. I follow ones for years, on the same link.
The problem might be the hyperlink. Without internet access and fine
browser, no go. An example I gave has all links on the same domain.
Some other doesn't, but put you all over the world. So, I see 2 ways
to get newspapers on version 1.
First, to follow subscription in epub and load it to the reader by the
hand or via desktop application.
Second, to unload the reader and build browser with, at least, html
version 4. It could be done if people forget preloaded books and
wait a bit for the page to load. I'm not positive if hardware is fast
for that. And how memory footprint comes in. K3 has browser and
people use it for almost all mundane tasks one might imagine. Does
it make k3 better choice? To me, epub is the very strength of kobo.
There are signs of fbreader for k3, but years could pass by to have
it on.
My choice would be to read books in epub on kobo and read news
some other way.
