We've just received a press invite for the launch event, which will be held on the morning of Wednesday, February 2 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. Murdoch will be joined by Apple's Eddy Cue, vice president of Internet Services.
The launch was originally rumored to take place on January 19 at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, where Murdoch was expected to be joined by Apple CEO Steve Jobs. (Jobs has since taken an indefinite leave of absence from the company, citing health issues.) A person familiar with the matter told AllThingsD that the launch was delayed by Apple, who needed some more time to fine tune its new subscription service for publications sold through iTunes.
