Seriously, if they start givin' it away...
1) I'm still not buying the print edition.
2) I want a refund.
I enjoy popular culture as much as the next guy, in small doses.
...but if the journal's gonna write for more of a general audience,
then I can ignore their publications just as easily as I ignore the
rest.
...and I don't understand why they would change their subscriber
model like that unless they plan to write for a general audience
too.
And I'd love to see the numbers behind it all. Where's that number
break down? How many banner ads do they have to serve before my $99
a year just isn't worth it anymore?
P.S. I won't pay for "insider" access to ESPN.com until somebody
over there writes something worth reading.
Wow! Great news now if they allow anonymous comments I can kiss this dump goodbye.
