The land-grab has happened by offrering free-content and now businesses will want a return on their investment. People have to accept you don't get anything for nothing - you either have to invest time or money and it's no different for the internet. If you're not prepared to pay for content then the quality of said content will be sub-standard. An example of this outside of the internet is the free morning newspapers available in the city of London (UK) - the quality of journalism is terrible, but hey most people love a bargin!

The ones who keep it free will get desperate for dwindling advertising revenue and die a slow death. Eventually, the glut of supply will correct itself and then people will have to choose between cheap (free) news and good (paid) content. Someone has to pay for it. We don't have the equivalent of live concerts here. It might actually work out. The ones who keep it free will get desperate for dwindling advertising revenue and die a slow death.
