Orb:
The internet is all about traffic in what way? Ratings? One cannot eat ratings. The amount google will pay to have their ads on your site? Well what if you don't wan't google ads on your site no matter how much they pay?

Your bar/cover charge/drink price analogy is interesting but it applies to a place that already had a product to sell. Camelot and Avalon have not had a product for sale that I am aware of, so charging a subscription to post will be the first. The amount taken in from that will not be less than zero, which is what they had before.

Traffic really only matters if you have a product for sale; no one is going to send you a check just because your site gets a lot of hits.
