Comment on NYTimes to start charging for access to their website.

I'm interested to see if paid subscribers have ads alongside their articles. I would consider paying it to contribute to good journalism AND have fewer ads (I am aware of AdBlock, however, I am also aware of how the Internet economy current works.)

See cable as an example.

Only channels I know that do not have any ads are the movie channels (HBO etc).

So I doubt NYTimes will pass up potential revenue from displaying ads to subscribers. Just that these ads will be more targeted and focused depending on the audience.
