it literally is just micro payments for articles. You can ignore the recs. Just that you have to read in their environment.

That sounds bad too. The whole reason I want micropayments is to make things less work for me.

Twitter or fb should have built this in long ago since that is where I get most links from. Blendle is closest I have seen though

most people don't want to pay for news. If news is important to you, most likely you're price inelastic, thus sub model.

I am price inelastic. I am not work inelastic.

if true, then you will pay for subscriptions, set to auto renew, and never think about it again as you read any article!

Having to remember I subscribed to something is work.

Also, subscribing itself is work. On one site I checked recently it was 23 fields IIRC.
