So, I subscribe to The Economist and I have a lifetime subscription to Nautilus. I happily pay for things that are good enough and relevant to my interests.

The NYT may want to consider what they could do to convince people like me that they're worth paying for.

I'm in the same-ish boat with regards to paid subscriptions. I pay for what is worth it to me. I think it's an older people trend yet. I tend to put things in the perspective of what a movie costs to watch in theaters. If the entertainment value surpasses or at least equals that to me, I go for it. Netflix and Hulu are a friggin bargain. Other services fall on that spectrum to me. It's all about the value.
