I think most all of us like the Daily Mail site but it has always been a pain viewing with the little video popping up and running in the lower R/H corner. I don't know what genius came up with that but obviously someone is going to krap in their pants if the video doesn't load, run and annoy. It is often the same article you are viewing so WTH? Yeah, you can click it off but it will occur again later, especially if you view a different article.
Now, there is more advertisement than ever and most of the articles are labeled as M+, Exclusive, or M+ Exclusive meaning you can't read them unless you pay and subscribe. Sometimes when logging on you are blocked to view anything at all W/O a subscription.
I haven't looked into the details but the cost isn't much. The problem is a lot of sites want that $ now and their "stuff" isn't worth paying for in the first place. I'll bet most all of them want you "autopay" too meaning they keep your CC info on file and bill you automatically forever when renewal is due. "Cancel any time"---sure, try that.
YouTube is getting worse too. There's advertisements before most all video's and interruption advertisements during the videos. They too want $ for you to view w/o commercials. Sure, they have to make money but they are doing it already with the ads that exist now. I can see things getting worse here since so many use their site.
Yahoo wants money to use their email service. The free version is so screwed up now it's hardly usable. I for one had to switch to different sites. The free email, though it is free, encourages people to use their site, read their liberal propaganda and enables them to charge more for running the articles and the advertisements associated with them so the mail service makes $ for them. One way they monitor how many view their stuff is by the comment section where readers can give their views as long as they abide with the sites left wing only policy's.
There use to be a lot of useful information on line. Now, not so much so.
I wish Fox and Newsmax had email services but they don't.
A lot of the older articles, replies and videos have been removed and replaced with less relevant, more common stuff that everyone already knows whether it's about medical conditions/cures/symptoms or auto repair questions. It's like useful info is being banned because it may cut into someones trade.
