You no longer have "eroticism: death and sensuality"to pay for Instapaper's best features.
Pinterest, which acquired read-it-later app Instapaper earlier this year, announced Tuesday that the app's premium features are now available to all users for free. Those who have already paid for a yearly subscription to the app will get a prorated refund.

Subscriptions previously cost $2.99 a month or $29.99 for a year.
When Instapaper was an independent operation, it relied on subscriptions as well as advertising, to keep its business afloat. But now that Pinterest owns the app, it can apparently afford to turn the app into an experience that is completely free for everyone. (This could be bad news for competing app Pocket, which charges $4.99month or $44.99/year for its premium tier.)
Add, in case any Instapaper fans were worried about the service's future as an independent app in the wake of Pinterest's acquisition, it appears they have nothing to be concerned about -- at least for now. A Pinterest spokesperson tells Mashablethe company plans to continue to run the app as a separate product and that it will continue to receive updates and new features.
