The i newspaper is to stop being distributed in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland from next week because it no longer makes "economic sense".
It joins sister titles The Independent and Independent on Sunday, which were withdrawn from the island this time last year.
Press Gazette understands the paper will not be distributed in newsagents from 3 August.
An email to newsagents in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland said: "Printing and distributing so few printed copies now no longer makes economic sense, especially while in parallel the web and iPad editions have become increasingly more popular.
