I am curious to find out if anyone here or that you know has subscribed to a paid online subscrition for a newspaper.
Wanted to read an article in one of the major newspapers and found could get the heading and maybe first paragraph or sentence but needed a paid subscrition to read the rest.
One thing i used to enjoy about travelling especially to London was to spend some time on a weekend going through 5 or 6 different quality newspapers on the same day. It provided interesting different perspectives of the same story.
I can understand the change and move to online and even the need to have paid subscribers, i am wondering how this is being recieved.
Good quality journalism is not neccessary going to rear its head on a blog in my view at least at this point in time is my thought.
Anyone care to recommend any newspaper subscriptions?
Back in the day in SA i always wanted to have the FT (Financial Times London pink paper) delivered to me but cost/timing was a detterent.
