If you accidentally pay for trash, you're not going to pay for it in the future, right? You'll be wary of that author / publication.
If enough people stop paying that author, they go out of business.
It shifts the onus to the content producer to make content people want to pay for, and not making the consumer decided between subscribing to a platform which is 50/50 good/bad.

I wonder though, how this works for the likes of Medium, where where is often good content, but by completely unrelated people, should it be up to me to know who I should and shouldn't pay to read? I see it would certainly make sites like this more useful, those that curate content based on public opinion.
