Back in September I had a discussion with the editor of Business2.0, Josh Quittner, about why I couldn't pay a few dollars and access the subscription content on the site. The crux of my argument was that I don't want a hard copy, I want immediate access only -- why is that not available. There is also a cost consideration here. Seeing as I live outside the States, the yearly subscription cost for a years access is USD 59, compared to USD 7.49 inside the States (subscribing gives allows online access through a long winded process).

Since then, I've pretty much stopped reading the site, seeing as most of the interesting stuff is locked against me. Dave reminded me about it last night, then quickly whipped up an online petition. If you would like to read the site without getting a mailbox full of dead tree, then I would very much encourage you to sign on the line.
