"What a pain in the butt!"

Looks like the paper is trying to find some sort of "happy medium" between totally free news and subscription-only access. They can't continue to stay in business without revenue.

As the print media dies off and becomes electronic, I expect we will see lots more such experiments. It's called, "capitalism"... '-)

(But you knew all that anyway...)
