Deja vu! I do not purchase access to many online services, but when I do, it seems that the service is then made available for free. Back in the day, if you wanted to include images in your blogger account, you had to pay a fee for Blogger Pro. I did this and then Blogger decided to allow anyone to include images in blog posts. I paid for a service to “time shift” online radio content (radiotime). That service also went free, but dropped service for the Mac.
Today I receive an email indicating that CNN Pipeline will be free beginning July 1.
This is a nice service that streams quality video content. Sometimes I like to listen/watch while at the office. This is not the same feed you would get through your television, but content specifically prepared for the Internet.
Telling folks about this now will probably do little good. However, when the transition comes, I will likely not notice the change and remember to encourage use of this service.
