Want 'War and Peace' Online? How About 20 Pages at a Time? - New York Times

If I can buy a piece of a book, why do I have to subscribe to the NY Times?
"Here's a penny: I'd like to see Krugman today"
And then, how about getting my money back on stuff that wasn't true? Heck, I'd be willing to pay extra up front for information that had some guarantee to it.
And how about this: you pay me to read some of the stuff you write. Or I bill you if you just wasted my time with some garbage. Doesn't even have to be money: just a simple vote.
Put in that context, the incredible value of friends and family and conversation (where it's all free and guaranteed and really really valued) comes into focus.
