Interested in hearing more about the results of your investigations.
I think people value good content, but not all content is the same. Certain creators or agencies have intrinsic "quality" associated with their reputation, and if there is an interesting story or video that I can't find anywhere else, I'd pay a few cents to read or view it.
For general stuff, like current news and affairs, where I'm just wanting to learn about an event or happening, I'd most likely Google around searching for a free synopsis somewhere that will get me gist of the "thing" versus pay the NYT or someplace else 25ยข for the same information.
Original, high quality content has value. I just don't want to spend $20 a month hoping to get my money's worth.
I think part of the problem is there is usually an all-or-nothing approach taken.
