Ich wollte schon aufgeben und tatsächlich das Abonnement bezahlen, aber das ist viel zu teuer, nur um ein paar Neuigkeiten zu lesen.
Und wer wird voraussichtlich am vierteljährlichen Symposium teilnehmen? Warum schließen Sie nicht ein Abonnement für 1 oder 2 Euro pro Monat ab, nur um die Neuigkeiten zu erhalten?
Ich weiß, dass man den kostenlosen Zugriff umgehen kann, wenn man inkognito arbeitet, aber das ist besonders umständlich, wenn ich nur einen schnellen Blick auf aktuelle Ereignisse werfen möchte.
Maltaheute ist es vorerst.

Old people. And people who are gonna write this off. Literally the only people who I would imagine pay for this.
Well, that’s just weird. It seems to be saying that for the longer time period you choose, the more you pay! 🤔
33c a day is too much to be informed? No big fan of subscription models but I don’t think they can be faulted on cost.

Journalism isn’t free. Actually proper journalism is very expensive.
This is expensive but at the same time 1-2 euros is a joke and kinda entitled to expect bunch of people work for free because „news should be free‘
They have every right to charge as they please, but this will be their downfall. For everyone saying that journalism is expensive, etc, etc. I agree with you, but these same companies, make hundreds of thousands from advertisements, so if their statistics start dropping because people won’t give in and pay, their entire business model will fail.

Arani gej. Kont ili nfittex biex inzid subscription ohra ma li diga ghandi… Huwa veru li il-gunalizmu u importanti u trid il-flus biex ikompli. imma dawn il-prezzijiet m’humiex realistici. There’s no need to go incognito to get the access to the article. just delete the ToM cookies and you’re good to go for at least one week. takes me 3 seconds to do it
TOM just doesn’t worth this amount. Check for example WSJ or NyTimes way cheaper. I know I know it’s an island and overpopulation and traffic and every other excuse to justify the price.
I wouldn’t mind paying if ToM still kept a standard.. Articles just parrot other news sites with worse grammar and I’m fed up of the clickbait titles.
Some of the article authors must think they’re very smart but the articles are nowhere near what they were 10-15 years ago
The PDF file that they send daily is an awful reading experience
Just need a news to be paid by taxes tbh, same way brits had a TV tax back in the day to pay for BBC(though fact its still and no one actually uses TV anymore is silly).
Either way ye fuck paying for news where they’re just giving you bullshit lies anyway.

Fee is way too high especially when accumulated to the rest of things we pay monthly, such as internet, phone, streaming service, music service etc.
More people would sub had the price been just 1 or 2 euro a month as is the case with some foreign news sites. In the end this is just a news website with ads. Its not like they have a news streaming channel with 24hr news and features.
True. 4/5 euro a month for a premium news service might be small enough to not care to much about it. After all, news costs money. But 10 euro a month is a bit steep when you could probably get by without it.
So this is the old people equivalent of fortnite crew
it’s not like it reports much news anyway, just lots of paid pieces and opinions with a sprinkling of articles 😛
Jesus christ are they serious. I never checked prices but didn’t think they would be so high. It’s not like they have special pieces which would make this worth it.
Its cheaper to learn Maltese on Kuċċarina
Was interested in subscribing as well but also found it too expensive. I get that subscription includes some extra perks, but my guess is that many (myself included) are only interested in unrestricted access to web articles.
Yeah it’s a bit fucked they’re charging as much as The Guardian and similar „global“ newspapers does for their digital paper + app.
