As a journalist and a consumer, I feel so torn about the issue. On the one hand, I subscribe to the Wall Street Journal online service because that's the only way to get the Web content. On the other hand, I resisted and didn't subscribe to the now-withdrawn TimesSelect, a New York Times subscription service that granted access to its columnists for the subscription fee, but enabled access to all the other content for free. The New York Times discontinued that paid online service a couple of years ago because the newspaper said it thought it could make more money through online advertising. I would rather see publications make available their content for free and support it with online advertising, but maybe that is a pipedream. I know I do resent the Associated Press for threatening to sue bloggers, like myself, if we continue to provide links to AP articles. I also would love to see Apple or someone else develop a sleekier, easier-to-use Kindle-like reader. Maybe there is a way to monetize such a service/device without so much pain to the general public/reader. Julio: You wrote an excellent post.
