If you are going to use my bandwidth, or click to my site, I am in it to sell you something. Whether you sign up to my mailing list, click some ad, or buy something direct. Signing up is justified and should be expected. It's the least you can do.
This internet 'entitlement' mentality is, frankly, bullshit.

I'm glad someone else posted this. I 100% support all 5 options to various extents. I'm not going to sign up to read a newspaper because there are 500,000 of them, but otherwise I fully support their decision to do that. If the "entitlement" mentality had their way there would be no banner ads, no ref links no nothing and everyone would live in a happy gumdrop world full of free everything made of open source marshmallows. You want information free of charge? deal with the extra .0001 seconds it takes to skip or minimise an ad.
