- edwhitesell 11y agoIf I'm willing to pay for content, why wouldn't I just pay the content owner directly? I already pay for WSJ, NYTimes and others. There could be an opportunity to enable content owners to more easily accept payments, but is the opportunity large enough (and the costs to the content owner low enough) to justify it? What's the model look like for that? Are there enough content owners/creators that would pay (or revenue share) someone else to monitize their content in a more meaningful way for users? Let's say "Blogger XYZ" decides to charge $1USD per article (likely a VERY high number). Is he/she going to give up 30% to someone else to handle the payment/settlement? Don't companies like Wordpress already have plug-ins for PayPal or Stripe to accept payments too?
