I'm really supportive of this kind of protocol. I've long advocated for some system that allowed for micro-payments to support websites, both optional and paywall. We've seen what the expectation of having "free" services has gotten us, I'd much prefer to chip in to sites that provide me enjoyment or are informative.
I would easily pay as you go for high quality news if it were truly a "micro" transaction. Like a few penniea or less per article.
