I like the fact most websites are free. You know what pisses me off far more than any advert in the world? The fact you have to register to read an article on the nytimes website. Can't be bothered. If the web can't monetize through advertising, expect far more moronic walled gardens.

"Delete domain cookies." But actually, I subscribe to the NYT, so registering for the site doesn't bother me. I'd rather get something I pay for than get a bunch of crap I don't want (ads) just to read an article.

  What if you had to register with 100 websites?

      yeah I think my scenario is slightly more probable.

BugMeNot works on some walled gardens like nytimes. If that fails, mailinator works on some more (but not all again).
