BBC Introduces Paywall for U.S. Website and App Access
TL;DR Summary
BBC has introduced a paywall for US users on BBC.com, offering an $8.99/month or $49.99/year subscription that grants unlimited access to news articles, live streams, and upcoming exclusive content, while US users who do not subscribe can still access select news and radio streams for free. The paywall employs a dynamic model based on user engagement, and the service remains free for UK audiences. This move aims to boost international revenue and expand BBC's digital offerings in North America.
