Telegraph extends paywall to UK readers

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-21946916

I'm baffled by the tablet price seemingly being seperate, but then it's not the best article either...

Edit - a much better effort, and The Sun will be joining them

I only subscribe to The Week since it's a mixture of everything really, wouldn't care about an actual newspaper before or now.

Re: Telegraph extends paywall to UK readers

Why would I want to pay for online news when there are plenty of places that offer legitimate news for free?

Same here. Plus the paper is fervently a UKIP backer now. They do not even believe in climate change and think that Green taxes are there to stop their fun choking the planet with CO2. I much prefer the BBC anyway.

This is what happens when you let people with MBA's run anything other than corner shops.

Private Eye says the intention is to basically turn it into the Mail Online. Should go down a storm with subscribers...

Why? One Daily Fail is enough.
