Willing to pay ... less than everyone else

I've had this link sitting around since November, but I never wrote about it.  This New York Times story is about a study that found about half of Americans would pay for online news.

However, that 48 percent was tied with Britain for the lowest percentage willing to pay out of nine countries. And, on average, Americans were only willing to pay $3 a month, which tied with Australia for the lowest amount. (Italy averaged $7 a month.)
