When it comes to the matter of who pays for what, business are often only guys willing to pay.

We need alternative systems to feed contents providers, because the current advertisement based system potentially have devastating effects on us in many ways.

It is, however, very hard: Pay-walling everything certainly is one easy solution but that will segregate the poor in network space and offset some of the efforts being made to dissolve many inequality related problems or, more bluntly put, inequality related costs( which normally increase exponentially as things get worse).

So, I have a feeling that pay-walling contents might just externalise the problem: which is fine for a business, and one blog charging users won’t have any effects on us.
The cost of the mass adoption of contents-pay-walling-practice, we can’t measure it but, will it truly be insignificant?
