$5 a Week?

Why would anybody pay that much?

Most papers are $1 or less per issue (and that includes the physical paper, ink, delivery, etc.).

That's what home delivery for newsday costs.
.50/day mon - sat and 2.00 for Sunday.

So they think that someone will pay home delivery costs to access a web site. You would be better off subscribing to Sunday only and get free access to the site for 1/2 the price assuming free access is for any subscription plan whether it is 7 days or 1 day a week.

Maybe $19.95 a year they could get enough people to bite. they don't have 99% of the costs that a traditional paper has so why charge the same price?

Remember, this $5/week is on top of you existing internet bill.
