They will lose readers. It seems to me they are targeting old folks and average consumers. Which is fine, but I disagree with NY’s $15+ premium.
I say good luck to NY and they will trip and fall.

Daily’s 99 cents fee is pretty fair and affordable. I can see myself paying for that even though I don’t read the news!
If people want prices to go down on subscriptions, we need to push competition.

And that’s my two cents.
