You were lucky then - that could be taken as plagiarism!

2 years ago, you would have been so far in the red for a post like this, you would have had to start over with a new account.

Woo-Hoo!
I wonder if "downvotes" means I am more a debator than upvotes....?!

Yeah, and now he is over 10K. Several downvotes needed somewhere...
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

If you have an OEM product-key[^] stick on it (probably under the battery) you can use any XP disk...

I am not totally surprised, but for years the online site was free, and now, it is not.
Frankly, the writing/journalism is NOT worth $5 a week. New York Times, it is not.
Subscription model is taking over the world, for good, and bad.

Why not follow the "FOX NEWS" model - make up the news you want and ignore the rest?

presents or presence? two different meanings. I actually don't understand your post, at all. Sorry. Are you trying to be funny, I don't know.

Surprising, here in Québec and in Canada, 2 major newspapers are going the other way, La Presse and The Toronto Star are free when using the tablet application ( which is different and better than the smaller free phone apps)
The tablet application, done by La Presse, is very well done, not perfect, nothing is, but well done.
I'd rather be phishing!

One of the local papers here gives you 10 reads free per month. Which is -really- annoying since they base it off IP address. It pretty much means the first 10 people in the entire building to open an article each month, are the only ones who get to read anything.
Fortunately they are also part of a bigger news syndicate. So all the smaller town papers do the same thing and have the same stories. Which is pretty much copy and paste for anything outside of extremely local news.
I'm fine paying for news if it is both actually newsworthy and a reasonable price. $25/month is not worth reading what amounts to 90% copy/paste AP stories. So I pretty much don't get local news.

The only local news I really get, is when I watch it on the TV, but I still pay for that, in a way, via the monthly cable bill.

I guess the way it works is instead of 10,000 free readers + money from ads, they end up with 200 paid readers and eventually no ad revenue, once the ads stop getting hits.

Not how it works. Ads in newspapers are priced on circulation. If your website is free you can't include any readers there in the circulation figure. Assuming that the readership of the paper version is stable anybody who buys an online subscription will be an addition to the circulation figures and therefore potentially extra ad income.
|
|
|
|
|
Online news sites use standard online ad companies, and the ads are not digital versions of the print versions. The ad revenue is primarily based on ad click-throughs.
