Cheque, please

wake-up_callThe free lunch for the big news portals is coming to an end as there’s pressure on them to bring in the bucks.

I discovered recently that the man who uttered that famous phrase, "Information wants to be free", said immediately afterwards that information also wants to be expensive.

How fascinating is that? It got me thinking about what I’m prepared to pay for online and that’s what my weekly Moneyweb column, Splitting Hairs, is about. I’d be interested to know what you guys would be prepared to pay for.

Fortune magazine recently did a catch-up interview with Stewart Band, the guy who said those famous words, which is also well worth a ponder.
