Should You Sell Your Feed?

We pay for magazines, we pay for newspapers. However if we see a site that sells its RSS feed we cringe or at least we question it. What is the difference? After all we are talking about news, we are talking about content, such as tutorials and tips, which can be very similar both in print and online.

On this note I’d like to point you to an article I wrote on Designorati, Printed VS Online Communication, Which One Is More Important?

What’s your opinion on this? What’s worse (or best): Having a free site supported by ads, or an ad free site, which you can only read on paid subscription?
