You can subscribe to the The Economist (digital edition) for $189/year. This is actually cheaper than most (Bloomberg is $419, FT is $372).
Edit: I'm just sharing information on the cost of subscription. If you look at my comment history, you'll see I've done this for others, OUT OF PURE CURIOSITY. I've also commented about how it would be unreasonable to maintain subscriptions to multiple news websites given these costs. But sure, downvote me - love you guys ;-)
- qzw 6y agoAlso check your local library. Many have electronic subscriptions now.
- josefresco 6y agoThis is great advice. I use the Libby app on iOS to borrow books/magazines from my local library to read on my Kindle.
- baron816 6y agoI managed to subscribe through DiscountMags at $50/yr a few years ago, and they allowed me to lock that price in permanently. It might be possible to get a similar deal during one of their promotion cycles.
- Seanambers 6y agoThing is, i read maybe 10-20 different news sites, not to mention the plethora of other sites with curated and written content. No normal person can afford to maintain that number of subscriptions. I wonder what a fair price for a article that gets 20-30k views would be, not to mention 2-300k. The price per view should be so low that some kind of crypto payment could work. A browser plugin with a crypto solution that autopays for content on newssites you'd preapproved or something - and you would be able to pay as you go on the web.
