Is anyone paying for the new site yet?

I've just stopped going to it completely. Unless they increase the quality of their reporting, then I fail to see how they expect this business model to work.

I used to go on the times website a lot but there is no way I am going to pay to use a site which is covered in ads, especially when you can get news for free from so many other sources.

How much is it anyway?

I used to go in it everyday at lunch and loved the layout, it was simple to negotiate and get around.

I tried the new one and there is very little content in comparison and find it difficult to find what I usually read.

I certainly won't pay for it though as it still full of adverts anyway.

It's £1 a day, or £2 a week I think.

Not a huge amount, but their reporting isn't of any great standard, and certainly no better than other free publications.

Pay money for anything owned by Murdoch?
Never.
