<a href="http://www.fimoculous.com/archive/post-859.cfm" target="_blank">For 2006</a>, I predicted CNN would drop Pipeline and NYT would drop TimesSelect. It took a year-and-a-half, but both finally happened.

Unfortunately, they're still charging for the crosswords.

damn you're good, hopefully only a matter of time until WSJ *and* Barrons drops their paid content (i hope)

I have a $50 bet with Jim that WSJ won't drop the paid wall online. After today's Fox board meeting, I might lose this one.
