Wah....Questioning the Metro... It is Gospel... I love the tag on the story which quotes the author as a "Self Confessed Techno Gipsy"
It is a good point - The Metro may not be the most reliable publication but it is edited and the guy is contactable i assume.
I think the Financial Times story confirms though that it is coming (even though it does not mention price). A paper like that doesnt bother with idle blog banter in print...
Also, there is no mention of VAT. That will be another lazy 17.5% no doubt!
The story also quotes books at £3 - £9 each...
