I once heard the same about the FT and tried it. In general, it was a pleasant experience and they not only covered topics in a neutral way but also allowed commentaries from different viewpoints. However, I didn't extend my subscription, because I didn't use it on a daily basis. Pay per article would have fitted me much better.
- Semaphor 10y agoYou might want to try https://blendle.com https://blendle.com they offer micropayments per article. IIRC they are currently in beta in the US
- pvitz 10y agoThanks, it looks interesting!
- elcapitan 10y agoI've been using blendle for a year or so and I'm happy with it. The only thing is that there is a disconnect between surfing the web, hitting the paywall, and then finding that article on blendle. There's no "buy now with blendle" button, unfortunately. Kind of obvious, because they actually all want to sell me their subscription, but annoying nonetheless. Not harder than the "search title with google to get free article" routine, though.
- chinathrow 10y agoThat sounds like a perfect use case for a Blendle chrome extension.
- elcapitan 10y agoThat's right. There is one, but apparently only in Dutch. I'll probably try it out anyway, not sure if for normal activity the language actually matters.
