But you still consume the journalism, just online, right? I read more 
newspapers than before, but I too have just one paper subscription, also The 
Economist. In fact, I called them a couple of years ago asking how much 
cheaper it was just to get the iPad edition. The answer was that it would be 
virtually the same price since I was really paying for the content, not the 
paper. Fair enough, so I continue to get it both electronically and on 
paper. The paper edition spends most of its time in the toilet ;-)

Cheers,
Nathan
