    Instead this system could be a lot smarter by measuring (for example) the time spent reading an article because it is not bound by the classical advertising constraints.
Then you have the problem of speedreaders like me vs slow-readers plus that it's still not tracking free.

You can monetize based on the time to read per person divided by the total time of this person. This way you eliminate {speed,slow}readers.
