Would you pay $250 per year for any single television channel you now receive for free? That's the price that Jamie Kellner threatens that consumers will have to pay if ad-skipping technology spreads. Kellner is sure that his own network, the Turner Broadcasting System, would thrive on a fee-based business model. But I'll bet he doesn't try it, even if ad-skipping software spreads.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
