Makes no sense to pay for something when I can get it free just by knowing where to look. However, when I examine my motivation for this reaction, I realise its not just the cost but the effort too. Payment mediums are still too clumsy and time consuming. I do have a number of sites I loyally follow for their specialist content and if I absolutely have to, I will be prepared to cough up if publishers/content creators can overcome these hurdles.
