Maybe one of the guys @warzan @lloyd @dignity @ludicryan @avernos @johnlyons @tgu3 could throw together a “contact us” type page where readers can enter their email address and an amount and it simply creates a recurring PayPal monthly charge as a seperate payment? (or, worst-case scenario, emails the team and someone can raise a recurring invoice on PayPal manually and send it back to the viewer who got in touch?)

That way, those who wish to do so can, it remains discreet so nobody needs pressured into doing it, and nobody’s current payment schedule is disrupted? Old users aren’t prompted to cancel their current subscription, new users don’t feel they’re paying more than past users and once you’ve filled in the form, nobody needs ever talk about it again.

By letting users enter a nominal amount, each can contribute as much as they feel comfortable without being made to feel it’s too much (or too little).

I suggested PayPal only because that’ s how my current subs are collected and it’s relatively easy to integrate with to set up a recurring billing thing. Until such time, anyone wishing to do so could always just make a one-off paypal payment (payment to a friend) for whichever amount they like, to [email protected] (that’s where my subs go to anyway).
