End of free news on the internet?

blimeycharlie [Edit] [Delete] 20:31, 27 March '13

I see both the Telegraph and the Sun are planning to introduce charges to read their content online (with a 20 article a month free allowance for non-subscribers in the Telegraph's case). Following the lead of the Times and the FT.

Not surprising really, given that free access has not really been a sustainable model (see the Guardian's massive losses for e.g.).

Would you pay a subscription to a range of newspaper sites, or just one, or not at all?

Also, who on Earth reads the Sun online?
