@spectralradius @obra tbc: I want to pay — perhaps subscribe monthly — and access articles from ~many journals & share

@spectralradius@obra I suppose what I want is for the journal to become deconstructed, like newspapers or music albums were before that -
@spectralradius@obra I want articles, tracks, and specific papers; I want the researchers to get paid; I don't want to go broke reading -
@starsandrobots@spectralradius@obra Important detail: The researcher never gets paid regardless of what you do, just the publisher! -
@mscain thx; this was my understanding but Sasen's comment threw me off a bit! -
@starsandrobots@mscain Matt said what I meant. But to non-researchers it sounds like maybe we want a cut of royalties, based on popularity. -
@starsandrobots@mscain Publishing industry has already broken our incentives; artists/labels/albums/tracks sounds worse. -
@spectralradius@mscain oh that's a deeper extension of the model than I meant, but fair critique -
@starsandrobots@mscain *nod* I spoke up b/c it's not clear who the pirates are here. Publishers borrow music's rhetoric to make us obey. - 3 more replies

@starsandrobots@spectralradius@obra isn’t JSTOR doing this already for institutional subscribers? -
@argonblue@spectralradius@obra they might be! I am not an institution and I have an idealistic bent this should be available to billions.. -
@starsandrobots@spectralradius@obra they seem to have plans for individuals as well, including some free content -
@argonblue@spectralradius@obra that's good to hear. (tbc: I'm okay with paying! I also want this to exist across many journals..)
