Since there are more articles (quality ones) getting paywalled these days, I wonder if it would make sense to adopt a similar model to platforms like ShortForm (book summaries) and offer article summaries for a paid subscription plan?
For ref, Lenny’s Newsletter subscription costs about $20 bucks per month and Eric Newcomer’s costs about $27 a month. If I can offer recurring article summaries from both of them at a much lower cost of $5 per month for my users while bearing the cost of actual subscription on my end, it will be a win-win for both my users and me. 🤔 Then it’s a matter of volume and hoping that my own user subscriptions can offset my cost of subscribing to Lenny’s and Newcomver’s.
Can you though? 🤔 this falls under transformative use in copyright law. I could be summarizing it in my own words and not copy anything at all.
