Not sure if that's what they're called elsewhere but those subscriptions where you pay $5/wk or whatever to read all the content of a newspaper online?
 
No. I did once and I realized a year later that I was getting charged $13 a month for a site I checked about twice monthly.
 
Plommer usually reads the Toronto Star online - it's free.

If it became subscription only he would probably look elsewhere.
 
Plus, those sites that have use the green overlay/paywall, e.g. The Onion & the Montreal Gazette, are ridiculously easy to "hack". You can quickly CTRL+A & CTRL+C the page before the overlay pops up, then paste anywhere to read.

Do ppl buy porn?

While plommer has acquired 95% of his porn collection for free there have been a couple of sites where he ponied up the $30 or so for a month and downloaded multiple gigabytes of their content.
(Usually Euro or Latin amateur stuff.)

Had to delete most of my Daft vids from my hard drive to make room for my porn stash.
 
I'd pay 9.99 a month to have lifetime access to Rogue's SBR porn vid.

anyone got that still?
 
wonder if you could dl everything on Brazzers in a month?

newspaper...no...same nigger shit, different day
 
We get the local paper for free. It's not actually fee. The trash company says is complimentary but we have to pay the trash bill first.
 
Its rarely worth it with the amount of online news media out there - just look at newsnow.co.uk.

The only thing that I subscribed to for a while was the Financial Review - that was worthwhile, but still not worth it.

Oh man. The cookie trick works with all those websites. It never occurred to me that they'd use such a stupid non-protection.
