AF&PA Reports Dec. Recovered Paper Numbers
http://www.afandpa.org/
The American Forest & Paper Association released its December 2012 U.S. Recovered Fiber Monthly Report on Jan. 24.
According to the report, total U.S. industry consumption of recovered paper in December was 2.38 million tons, less than 1 percent higher than in November. Receipts decreased for most grades and, coupled with the flat consumption, caused across-the-board decreases in inventories. Total consumption in 2012 was 3 percent lower than in 2011.
U.S. exports of recovered paper in November dropped off 4 percent from the strong October figures, though they were still 4 percent higher than November 2011. Total exports of recovered paper in 2012 were 5 percent lower than in 2011.

Moody's: European Paper Co.s Must Diversify
Ratings agency’s report says European
paper companies should look to nonpaper operations and emerging markets to
drive long-term growth and protect profits
MOODY’s released a "special
comment" report on Thursday saying European paper companies could
safeguard growth and profits by diversifying away from paper markets.

profiles.
China's 2012 RCP Imports Up 10.2%, Pulp Rises 14.8%
China's total recovered paper (RCP) imports grew 4.5% to
around 2.687 million tonnes in December 2012, up from some 2.570 million tonnes
in November, according to data from China Customs.
December's figure was 3.8% lower than the 2.792 million
tonnes recorded in the same month in 2011.
RCP imports totaled over 30.066 million tonnes in 2012, up
10.2% from the preceding year. The intake in 2011 totaled just over 27.280
million tonnes.
China's total pulp imports fell 1.3% last December compared to
the previous month, to nearly 1.394 million tonnes, according to data from
China Customs.
The December drop, which came following an increase of 3.8%
in November from October, was attributed largely to a decline of 6.8% in
bleached softwood kraft (BSK) pulp imports.
Pulp imports for 2012 totaled around 16.462 million tonnes,
a surge of 14.8% from 2011, which came in at 14.340 million tonnes.

Number of Magazines on Tablets
How many magazines are being sold on the
tablets?
This seems like it would be an elementary question, one covered far and wide. But, my research tells me that this information does not exist out there in any accessible way. So, how did I compile it?
Remember when you used to have to count on your fingers to figure out things? That’s basically what I did. I went to three different tablets, found digital magazines, and added them up.
Here’s what it looks like more or less today (counts were all made in January 2013)...

and single copies of magazines.
Hearst says that all 22 of its magazines will become available on Apple’s Newsstand "days" before the print editions are published, with this headstart apparently varying by publication.

Vice Straddles the Line
As unlikely as it sounds, the future of
publishing could be written, in part, inside a converted warehouse in
Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the unofficial capital of Hipster USA. That’s where
Vice Media is trying to strike the balance of maintaining its indie publishing
cred while operating as a marketing arm for the world’s biggest brands.
Vice began as “Voice of Montreal,” a magazine funded by the Canadian government. In 1994, Shane Smith, Suroosh Alvi and Gavin McInnes bought the publication and built up its reputation as the home of gonzo-style reporting at a time of watered-down journalism in the age of corporate media.
