Examples

  • I would actually be willing to pay some kind of subscription to keep a high-quality "paper of record" online, because I've reduced a 30-year daily newspaper addiction down to a Sunday-only over-the-counter purchase for the ad inserts and leisurely browsing when screenreading isn't convenient.
