seems as though no one is fooled by the increased subscription numbers

Sure, guess they just increased the IPO price range for the fun of it!! A company with a business model like theirs eventually won't even need to charge a subscription fee. They could derive most of their revenues from advertising and joint ventures. It's not even really about subscribers. If you look at the newspaper business, subscriptions pay for costs of trucks, paper and other overhead. TSC doesn't have that. It's by alining themselves with trading related sites and other news services that will pull them into the black. They're starting to build a sizable team of journalists and people will continue to wnat their kind of content.
