Paying for newspaper websites

[Gromit]

// The Times and The Sunday Times will start charging for their websites from June, it was confirmed today.

News International, the newspapers’ parent company, announced that readers will be offered a day’s use for £1, or £2 for a week’s subscription. //

Would you pay a similar amount for your own newspaper?
Will this work?
Do the websites have to offer more to justify charging?
Would you boycott sites that charge?

Reading a newspaper or a book in hard copy is a pleasure but on a computer screen it is a pain in the neck. So no I wouldn't pay.

News is in the public domain. There are plenty of sources on the net I would use as an alternative.

No way would I pay. I would urge everyone else not to. It could be the start of a slippery slope for paying to view any website by the penny.
