Interestingly, before the arrival of Internet, people had no qualms for paying $1 per day for newspapers. That’s at least $30 per month. Weekends editions were priced more and many people would even have subscription to couple of newspapers. Their content for quarter of the price of a coffee cup looked pretty cheap and no one seems to complain about the price.

Newspapers are tangible things. Some pixels on a screen are not, and the entire model of the web is that "everything is free". It's hard to break away from that.
