While I do agree with some concerns about quality journalism, and I want it to survive, I find the specific argument you used to be disingenuous. We're dealing with perfectly and infinitely reproducible 'product'. Any scarcity here is artificially imposed. It's not like with groceries, where we have finite amount of goods, that can only be consumed once. I know, that reality of dealing with non-scarce goods doesn't gel very well with free-market capitalism, but I think limiting access to journalism (and IP laws such as copyrights and patents) is a net negative for our society, so we shouldn't resort to bending our only post-scarcity type of good into a scarcity driven economic system. |
