I don’t anymore because of the paywall. Or at least not as much. Certainly not on the iPad. And with less enjoyment. My favorite way was the way I read it before March 28th or whenever the foolishness began. It seems to be free at work (from the Lincoln promotion?), but the same login springs the paywall at home. It’s easy enough to get around the paywall, but it’s annoying. The whole thing is frustration generating. As one friend pointed out over email, they’ve adopted a consumer experience perfected by the airline industry where everyone pays a different price and everyone feels ripped off. Setting a price is fine, but not like this.

How do I read The New York Times?

Without joy.
