I can understand the need to show ads to people viewing content for free I just don't understand why charge an access fee and show ads. This is why people use ad blockers.

But your subscription isn't necessarily paying the amount of money that the publisher has decided it wants. In that case, it's divided its revenue between your subscription and selling ads. It's hoping that the ads won't annoy you enough to block them or leave. For most people that's probably true.
- freehunter 12y agoI ask myself that when I use the NYT app or visit their website. Why the hell am I paying every month to be shown ads? But then again: any magazine, cable channel, etc "old media" still follows that. If it existed before the Internet, you're likely paying for it and viewing its advertisements.
