Might be good to require subscription in order to post. But it should be available for everyone to read,as I expect troll types need to read the discussions. They could learn something important. Trolls (from D.U., etc.) would be less likely to post and stir up trouble if they had to pay money.

I think product pimps for Apple and other products should pay much more. I would pay extra if I did not have to wade through multiple daily Apple press releases and I dislike Microsoft even more.

I like your ideas. Free to read is good because we need to get the conservative point of view out there and not be exclusive. I'd pay for a subscription to post, though I seldom post. And keeping out the riffraff is a side benefit.
Although, I wonder if the money taken in could actually decrease by charging to post - compared to the donations. TPTB would need to do an analysis on the number of regular posters and figure the cost based on that number. Some will bail, no doubt.
