The Los Angeles Times offers Sunday print plus digital access for $1.99 per week, but if you’d rather not receive the Sunday paper you’ll pay a dollar more.Other papers also leverage reader demand for digital products to boost circulation for ad-heavy Sunday newspapers. But the extent to which this reality is reflected in subscription prices stands out. That’s confirmation that print advertising remains far more lucrative than online advertising even as readers abandon print for screens. As a result, digital-only subscribers are paying a higher rate for the content. When an All Access subscriber chooses the digital-only option, our business misses out on the chance to subsidize the cost of producing content. Traditionally, our business has subsidized the cost of producing content with advertising – particularly the glossy inserts that many readers see in the newspaper on Sundays. Why, after the introductory period is over, does the digital-only option cost the most? So is the model forward-thinking and digital-first or is it mostly an attempt to boost print circulation while there’s still some money to be made there? President and publisher Tom Silvestri couldn’t be reached for comment, but here’s how the paper justifies the pricing in its FAQ: Meanwhile, digital access without print costs $21 per month. After introductory rates expire, each print subscription option - seven-day, six-day, either of two four-day options, or Sunday-only - will cost a flat $19 per month with digital access included. The Times-Dispatch launched its All Access paywall Tuesday that charges more for those readers who want digital access to the website but don’t want newspapers delivered to their doorsteps.
But if all you want is digital, you can pay a little less.
