Wall Street Journal Subscriber vs Free

Wall Street Journal does a nice job letting you know what sections are available for free vs. subscription.

It is kind of odd that the "Free Today" section is much more visually compelling than the subscriber section. You think it would be the other way around.

Yeah I thought that too, though the subscription is the "what's New" area and I think most people won't look for free vs. paid to start with. Wonder if they tested in to that. It's interesting to see WSJ and FT.com going with more free content mixed with the subscriptions too.

The Free Section - the the "Free Today" at the top

The subscription only section - "for subscribers only" at the top, not quite as obvious as the "Free" tag.
