This is an excellent development. Having spent over a decade in the book publishing industry, I know the majority of authors do it for love not money. But everyone has bills to pay and quality content creation costs money to produce.

It is a problem professional publications have had to grapple with when faced with declining paid readership. People moving to 'free' outlets only moves the problem, it doesn't solve it.

Hopefully this might illuminate the path to a sustainable solution.
