Abstract

The probability of paying for a digital newspaper in Spain is analyzed. Using a survey of a representative sample of 2,104 Spanish adults, we show, in general terms, the lack of people willing to pay for digital information. In addition, through a logistic regression analysis, we explore which factors affect this probability and discuss the main practical implications of developing paid-content strategies in the newspaper industry.
