A relatively interesting discussion - but I don't see any clear points we can take action from.

We'll pay what something is worth, to us. Murdock controls the Wall Street Journal and The Times, of London. They are both pretty good. I paid $20 a year for full access to The New York Times. That is what I can imagine paying for a high quality on-line publication. This is not a solution for the average paper in trouble, such as The Rocky Mountain Journal. They may not be worth much to anyone.

Good luck to them - somehow i can't imagine most people paying
for it.
