For only the second time in our history the ownership of The Economist changes
The Economist is a prime example of how for-pay curated content can work and can work well to serve a market... a wide market.Can you imagine, just imagine, how craptastic The Economist would be if it were "free" and all you had to do was endure curated advertisements?PS I would pay extra if they would stop stapling in those cardboard subscription cards in the middle of the (print) issue.PPS I feel the same way about the NY Times---worth paying for---although they have gone so broad recently that I'm worried they're becoming unfocused, trying to appeal to too many at once.
