The problem is, do I really want to pay $1/week for that New York Times subscription if I only read articles from them once every 3 weeks? And the funny thing is, the inconvenience of subscribing is actually more of a deterrent to me than the money itself. If they publish a good article, I'd like to see them get paid for it so they can make more good articles, but I'd also not like to be mined for data. I also don't want to be inconvenienced trying to subscribe, because it is completely impractical to keep track of hundreds of individual subscriptions. Not sure why everyone is so negative about this here but it seems like a very useful idea.
