Don't know, but I'm sure not interested in subscribing - even if they paid me to do it. :)

I see the NYT now offers a "Free" account. They ask for an EMAIL address and to enter a password (no credit card). I have a junk email account I could give them. Wonder what the downside would be to creating one. Don't know what they do in actual fact, but: They can claim more unique readers and thus charge advertisers more - and whatever other benefit there is for larger readership on the web. Yes, a way to charge is number of ad views (and clicks) - but one person could view the same ads. Unique viewers are a more significant statistic. If nothing else, "prestige". FWIW
