We are working on a similar system to the one you described here: https://www.coinetize.com https://www.coinetize.com - though we are going for individual payments for articles/photos/digital content rather than a subscription system. The site does enable payments to any linked website.
I've heard the 'decision fatigue' argument but I don't see evidence that it would lead people to stop browsing and making payments. Also, how much of this is just getting people using a system? If you are charging 10 cents for an article, how much mental effort do people really use up making a decision whether or not to read?
There's been a lot of conjecture over pay-for content over the past few years, much of which has already been proven wrong - e.g. it was speculated that people simply wouldn't be prepared to pay for content at all - and now we see many online editorials are monetized. In my view its simply perceptions that need to change - and because ads become ever more annoying and problematic, I think this is a change that's inevitable.
