Q7a. Have you paid for online news content, or accessed a paid-for online news service in the last year? (This could be a digital subscription, combined digital/print subscription, a donation, or one-off payment for an article or app or e-edition). Base: Total sample in each country-year ≈ 2000. Please note the question may underrepresent newspaper purchase in any high-subscription countries, as many of those who pay quarterly/annually probably would have answered no. Year-on-year comparisons should be valid.
