Readers are readers. They now have zero chance of converting me into a paying subscriber, since I can't read their articles. With a more flexible paywall, I can be encouraged to subscribe every time I'm linked to an article.
- cshenoy 12y agoIt's a metered paywall [1]. You'll still be able to read a few articles a month. IMHO, that's fairly flexible. [1]: http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/07/28/note-readers http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/07/28/note-readers
- GrinningFool 12y agoBut they had a zero chance of converting you to a subscriber to begin with. You represented only an expense to them.
- discardorama 12y agoBut you yourself said (in GP) that you wouldn't pay to read them. So the chance of converting you into a paying subscriber is 0 to start with. What's the loss? :D
