An interestingsurvey of 27,000 consumers across 52 cities and countries was recently released byNielsen that shows the type of content we, the consumer, are willing to pay for online and the ones we aren’t. I wonder how many of them were from DC. The report shows 85% of respondents would like to see free Web content stay free. Contents like movies, music, and games are the types we are willing to pay for, but not for the blogs, podcasts, and video which is right along our tradition pre internet era. We have always been willing to pay for entertainment, but not for information.
