"Effective Sept. 19, we are ending TimesSelect. All of our online readers will now be able to read Times columnists, access our archives back to 1987 and enjoy many other TimesSelect features that have been added over the last two years – free."

I don't see how this is going to work out for them either. Their "articles" are mostly stuff that they've pulled from AP, and their own staff has added their own spin to. I can get the same content for free from too many other online sources.
I used to read the Sunday NY Times when I lived back East many years ago, but they had some great original content back then. They would publish highly in depth articles written by their own investigative journalists. I would be willing to pay for this kind of content.
