    That's an easy one. $0.00. The same amount I pay for Fox News, drudgereport, ESPN, CNNSI, etc. Good luck with this.

    Maybe if there was more local content beyond the bad cop stories and the Bonnie and Clyde updates. But what the Inky/DN peddles, is available for free all over the internet. I bid $0.00. Good luck

    So the best link to a story about Philly.com is on FoxPhilly.com??? Tells me all I need to know about the "value" of this site.

    Hey Will, how about a deep investigative report on how much the empty suit spent of OUR taxpayer dollars to see a lousy play this past weekend. Don't forget to include the 600 NYPD cops that were on overtime!!!!!!!!!! Total bill for "date" was over 3/4 MILLION DOLLARS! And some people were concerned about how much REPUBLICANS paid for some clothes. Will, I know you can get to the bottom of it. And he does this the day before we learn GM was going bankrupt. What timing. But don't any of you CEO's go to Las Vegas on the company dime,according to the Hawaiian hobo. To answer your question, nyet.

    Charging for online content sounds like an idea so bad only a Republican PR guy could come up with it... (checks) - yep, see? there you go!

    God, I am sick of the negativity here. WriteWinger why focus on the negative that Obama wasted taxpayer money to take his wife on a date (besides I understand he paid for the tixs to the play himself - that must have cost him at least $200 bucks) - remember this was a promise Obama made during the campaign!! Let's see the glass as half full for once - Obama actually kept a campaign promise.

    Put me down among those who wouldn't pay for content. As a former native now living on the west coast, philly.com is a place for me to touch base with news from my old stomping grounds. But if you're going to start charging me for it, I can get that plenty of other places.

    I'm on the Obama bandwagon, I like free stuff, so I won't pay for content.

    didn't the NYT already try for about a year to charge for "premium" online content before giving up on the idea?
