I gladly pay for quality media at a fair price.
Netflix, to me, is fairly priced. A cable subscription sure as hell is not. $15/month for a digital copy of the NYT? No thanks, the 99c/month for the first month I'd agree with. The NYT is a premium news outlet and blog, not a publication you get delivered to your door in hard-copy. I get AJE for free.
It's not that we're mooching, it's that the digitization of content removes most of the cost of its production and delivery.
Newspapers, movie studios, cable providers, etc. are all being disrupted, and refuse to realize that the value of their services has changed. Deal with it. Industries fluctuate. Please don't harm the customer because of it.
