Murdoch's paywall for the internet has raised many eyebrows in the online content world about how to recoup costs and earn revenue from their work on the internet. There are currently two models, advertising and now the paywall, both with the pros and cons.

Steve and Ben discuss the pros and cons of both models and what the future may look like, including discussions of Rupert Murdoch's paywall, Apple's ability to get users to pay for online content in a 'cool' way, and online advertising models
