Are You Willing to Pay for Online News Content?

hi there... i dont think i would ever pay for any kind of news content online. this is mainly because i think i mean am sure we can get the same information some where else from the internet free of cost... cheers.

No, I am not willing to pay for news. I never have. It is everywhere and if I can't get it one place I will go elsewhere. No, I am not willing to donate for these sites to stay afloat. Do they do good news. I know of none of them. It has been free and I am sure it will be free somewhere.

I doubt this will ever happen and if it did I would avoid those sites. There will always be free sites around like the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) and others of its ilk. They are just trying to make even more money in my opinion.

It was bad enough paying for fractured fairytale on paper, not likely in this lifetime to pay for it on the web when I can get the same crap for free on tv with dinner.

No way, there's so much free news available I see no reason to pay for it. I pay for satellite tv, I pay for a newspaper, I pay for my internet connection, I pay and pay and pay, I refuse to pay more.

Hi getbrowser Well i don't think i can do that, i would not pay for online news, definitely not, there are so many nice free websites for that, and i don't know what extra we might get if we pay, i think e-mail notifications and probably some sms text etc etc, anyways i am not willing to pay just for some news! have a nice day getbrowser!

No, I am absolutely not willing to pay for online news content. If I pay for news I want to be able to line the canary cage with it (figuratively speaking, as I do not believe in keeping birds in cages)--but there are many useful things to do with newsprint, and one may as well get some extended benefit out of what one buys. Perhaps Amazon's Kindle would hope to change all that, but you cannot wrap garbage in a Kindle.

I will not avail of such. As you can see, we can always get information including news items online all for free. So there is no point in paying for them. Most of the things including information can be seen online for as long as you know how to search. The only investment that you do is your time and of course your effort.

well if i really need it and it it can help me a lot with something that i currently doing then i will definitely think about it.. I mean the site that focusing in particular news and not the ordinary site news that have global content in it..

NO, why should I spend something for news when I can read it online or on the newspaper or even on tv?

Well, considering our budget, no, I would not like to add another bill to our household . . . so I would not be willing to pay for online news content. As everyone has already stated, I can get almost all the information I need online for free as it is. And then there is always television or radio news. I somehow don't see how consumers would be willing to pay for such a service unless there was something more that they had to offer.

There are two big reasons for reading/listening/watching news. Business purpose and past-time. For Past Time Purpose i will never agree to pay for any type of news because there are many free ways to get this type of content viz. news channels and direct message from associated people. The first mean (Various News Channels)is free due to tough competition among them. Every news channel wants to spread its name so if they take money, other free news channel will occupy that place. The second mean of news i.e. direct listening from persons occurs because of natural human tendency of communication. For Business purpose i prefer to pay for suitable and appropriate news regarding my own business. Example: A merchant or Share Holder must have knowledge about what is going in the contemporary market.

i personally think that absoulutely no one should have to pay,. twice! and thats exactly what people would be doing, isnt it? first you pay for the use of the net, why should you be forced to pay for something thats free on tv? its free here now, so why enforce payment? thats my opinion anyway...

Well, since i use internet, i actually never join any paying site. I only join a free site. So i think i will keep doing this since usually what the free site give us doesn't really inferior to those of the paying site. Especially if you talking about news, there are news every where in the internet that you can get for free, so why paid it?

i'm unwilling guys since there are maybe includes some material that i not interested on it the other way with small expnditure is subscribes RSS feed happy mylotting
