The pricing is ridiculous. In the digital age, people gets news from dozens of sources not just one or two papers like it used to be. I myself am a bit of an RSS junky and each day probably read more than 300 headlines, skim through maybe 10 to 15 articles and read maybe two or three fully. Say I limited my reading to only 10 websites, at the advertised price I would be paying $2400 per year!
- corin_ 16y agoIt's expensive, but at the same time, there'll still be plenty of people willing to pay. I currently pay for WSJ, FT, and a bunch of magazines, and NYT will join that list when the paywall arrives. (And there are at least a couple more papers I'd pay for if they required it, to allow me to read on the iPad.)
