Condé Nast — publisher of the New Yorker, Vogue and Wired, to name a few — announced at the South by Southwest Conference that the company intends to have digital versions of all its 20-plus magazines by the end of the year.

But Condé Nast executive Rick Levine says he is wary of Apple’s dominance in the tablet market. In a report by WWD Media Levine says the marketplace needs to be competitive in order for it to be successful, but he says, “”for the foreseeable future, Apple will rule the roost in terms of the marketplace.”
