The Wall Street Journal has three tiers: free (shared links, some content free), paid at abt $2/wk, and premium (higher sub fee with access to expanded background content). The middle ground is very comprehensive and reasonably affordable -- half the New York Times fee. Having lived with the middle option for almost a year I can say it meets my needs. I can see something like that working for New York Times.
What I can't figure out is the Amazon rates: $15/mth for the Times on a Kindle for US residents; $28 for Canadian "delivery". Over 3G, I get there might be a premium; but with so many more people on wifi ... it's certainly a deal breaker for me.
