I disagree. In college (1995-99) I had to subscribe to WSJ for my business courses, and I hated it. I would have much rather had a digital subscription; I'd read it when I could, I could easily share it. Instead, I got a disdain for paper subscriptions.
- DrScump 11y agoThey had digital subscriptions. In fact, I'd guess that WSJ.com was the first successful paid-online-subscription newspaper that still endures as paid subscription. (The San Jose Mercury was earlier, but they went free later for a number of years.) Back in the 90s, WSJ Op-Ed content was free, but the rest was paywalled.
- outericky 11y agoYes, but the class requirement was the paper subscription. Pretty sure the professor was just an WSJ paperboy.
