Our review
The Zetland site names Zetland ApS, with CVR number 34469377 and the address Njalsgade 19D. The excerpt we read cuts off after the street, so we do not state the city.
Zetland calls itself a different kind of newspaper that you can listen to. It is one publication in Danish, not an aggregator.
What members get
Zetland lists a short morning overview, the daily news podcast Helikopter at 15.30 on weekdays and in-depth stories in text and audio. Stories appear every day except Sunday.
Zetland says members get no ads and can talk to journalists in a contribution track.
Price
The homepage offers membership for 60 kr, without stating in the text we read whether that is per month. Check the billing period on the live site.
A back catalogue of hundreds of timeless stories in text and audio is included.
What is missing
The company page we tried returned a 404 error, so we read no imprint beyond the footer line. No data location or privacy text was read.
The service is Danish-language.
Points against
Zetland is Danish-language, covers one newsroom and offers no magazines or other publishers. The billing period of the 60 kr price and the data location were not read.
Best suited to users of Zetland
Danish speakers who want to listen to news. For multi-publisher access see Readly.
