It seems like they can fund a month's operation on donations without actually asking for money or saying that they'd do anything in particular with it. I would assume that they don't get that level of response all the time because people forget or procrastinate. Subscriptions would allow people to essentially decide to make a donation periodically without paying attention.

On the future of LWN Posted Jul 26, 2002 19:48 UTC (Fri) by oever (subscriber, #987) [Link] LWN deserves subscriptions. Maybe information wants to be free, but it's impossible to expect this quality (best in-depth linux news site) to exist for free. Linux supporters should put their money where their mouth is and subscribe.Anything other than a yearly subscription is not convenient. People from LWN need to be able to plan their lives too. They need a steady revenue. They've been keeping up steady news too. So, if there is to be a subscription, I'll surely subscribe if the price is right and I dont demand that other people will be shut out of the information because I help paying for it and the dont. But the price should be reasonable: $1 or $1.5 a week is ok.
