in Should newspapers have a pay wall? on Mathew's comments
You make some interesting points Mathew. Definitely food for thought as I work through similar problems for a rival publication. My thoughts on the matter are mixed. I agree that papers like the times, WSJ and the other big 10-15 could charge for their most sought-after content but look at what Forbes.com did (as I learned at Mesh). When Forbes pulled down the wall, traffic skyrocketed giving it more advertising opportunities and room to jack up rates. After all, news sites are in the eyeballs biz, right?
