I don't get why they even need this much complexity on their paywall page
. I mean, it's just gonna make my browser lag or something
. And what's up with the recirculation messages? Are they really that effective at getting me to read more content or whatever?
Don't get me wrong, I love a good article, but can't they just make it easier for us to access their content without all these bells and whistles?
On the other hand, maybe this complexity is what's gonna set them apart from those freebie websites that can't even be bothered to optimize their design
. But wait, wouldn't that just lead to more ad revenue competition?
Ugh, my head hurts thinking about all this
