1 edit | Value Is Everything I think people will pay a for specialized information or local news but price cannot exceed value. I won't pay what the WSJ charges because I just don't need what they're selling which is in-depth business analysis. However if it were $1-4/month I might just for the quality of the national news coverage - something of value to me.
I might even be willing to pay $3-4/month local for my local paper's online edition if they expanded their local and state coverage and went more in depth on issues, but there is no news rag that I'd pay $5/week for.
Honestly I don't mind paying for something that brings me value. Something like Consumer Reports Online. But value is everything. Obviously from the subscriber numbers Newsday overpriced their product. Maybe now they'll wake up and cut the price.
