[–] SexyTimeSasquatch@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago (3 children) You're paying for the content in the case of the newspapers. It is a similar cost to print on newsprint as to run a website. It saves them no money. Most of what you are paying for is for the journalism, writing, editing, etc. Content costs money. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago That definitely depends on which news outlet we're talking about. permalink fedilink source parent [–] li10@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago Exactly. The reason I cancel my subscriptions is because there’s been a nosedive in content that I enjoy, which has tipped the scales to it costing more than it’s worth to me. I’ve moved to a Plex setup, but even then I don’t watch many shows at all. The ones I do watch are all on different platforms though, so it would be X many subscriptions just to watch the few shows I like. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago* That's counterintuitive, do you have a source for that? EDIT: googling around, I don't see any obvious answers. permalink fedilink source parent
