Jinfo: The Paywall Debate Moves to Video Monetization

The Paywall Debate Moves to Video Monetization
Jinfo Article

10th September 2013

Abstract

A quick look at the FreePint archive of articles on the subject of paywalls shows that the topic was top of the agenda two years ago, and has made infrequent headlines since then. However, this does not mean that the issue of whether and how to charge for news has gone away, or has been resolved. A new aspect to the paywall debate is that of video monetization, with publishers seemingly unsure of how to approach the issue and providers such as YouTube now considering charging up to $5 a month for access to certain channels.
