How about, for example, delaying content releases until certain funding milestones have been reached? This will act as an incentive for people to pay for the content. If they want it released even earlier, they should pay more?
- mjhay 3y agoThat doesn't get past the free-rider problem. That kind of thing can also wind up angering some people (which is kind of entitled, but that doesn't mean it isn't real)
- hmcq6 3y agoWell there's a pretty good reason this won't work for the given example (newspapers). Why am I gonna wait for an NBC article when CNN (or worse FOX) posted the story already for free? Some types of reporting I would be happy to fund and wait for but other stories need to be posted ASAP or they lose their value. The same is true of art. For example, Age of Empires getting an expansion 25 years later is notable because it is uncommon. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/02/age-of-empires-2-gets-another-expansion-25-years-later-and-deservedly-so/ https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/02/age-of-empires-2-gets...
