Felix Salmon whacks the NYT's paywall proposal:
[There’s] no mention of what’s going to happen to the NYT’s many blogs, and on this front I think no news is bad news and that they, too, will be part of the metered system. Suffice to say that the number of successful blogs behind a paywall is, at present, exactly zero.
While Nick Carr defends the paywall. Earlier thoughts here and here.
