How did the New York Times manage to spend $40 million on its pay wall?
Yikes. Probably $10k worth of code, and $39,990,000 worth of strategizing, consulting, Powerpoint presentations, and general hand-wringing about the "death of the news industry".<p>All I know is, if I'd spent $40mil on a paywall, I'd be damn sure it was written to filter on the server-side, not with a  client-blockable overlay like they have supposedly implemented.
