Industry observers: "NYTimes ignoring deep flaws in online business model" [MediaWeek]

Based on the details that have emerged, the Time’s meek metered
approach will result in just 15 percent of readers paying for content
access—a figure unlikely to start a revolution. And even though the
company announced its plans a year ago, few publishers have joined the
cause, outside of several U.K.-based papers and Long Island’s
Newsday—neither of which have generated meaningful numbers of paying
subscribers.
