>>>What worries me is that this business model has failed before -- just look at Slate magazine.

IMHO, Slate is not a good example. AOL is a much better example with their 100 hours Free. Although, think you have a very good point, CheckFree needs to watch out for freeloaders, or even current paying customers converting over for a free six months. There are way CheckFree could limit this turnover. In addition, it is not as easy to switch bill pay providers as it is for ISP's.
