Are links to websites that require you to pay to view content allowed? I assumed not untill I realised that we cite books and newspapers all the time, and they require purchasing...
As sources, yes, as long as there isn't a good, free alternative.
As sources, that's not a consideration - the typical example will be the website of a paper journal. The paper journal is still a good reference even if the website is for paying customers. (Lexis-Nexis references may also be of encyclopedic value for this reason.)
As external links, I would say no.
Heck no, I agree.
