Hm, if everyone had this attitude, we'll end up with reality TV 24/7.

Good reporting costs money. If the quality is there, I don't mind paying. The NYT is a good paper, so I'll most likely subscribe.

(I happily pay for Pandora, too -- $35 for a whole year of great content, at a higher bitrate and no ads -- in my book it's a bargain.)

I guess it's a matter of priorities. I canceled my satellite service 3 years ago, since I never watched it anymore. Now I basically stream everything. For news, I just read or listen -- TV news have become worthless.
