The BBC is launching a paywall in the US


The BBC is trying to drum up more revenue.

“This approach allows casual readers to explore freely, while offering our most engaged users the opportunity to unlock even more,” the BBC writes in its announcement. In the future, the BBC’s subscription will include ad-free documentary series, films, and podcasts, along with access to exclusive newsletters and other content. A weekly newsletter by David Pierce designed to tell you everything you need to download, watch, read, listen to, and explore that fits in The Verge’s universe.
