Seriously, what are you people even arguing about. Although I don't entirely agree with the opinions of ssound5rs, he still provides to us viable point.
This threads discussion was originally supposed to be about which is better the so called freemium or the paywall. Although a lot of people don't like either of the two ideas, we are only talking about what would happen 'if' Qidian decides to put down the ad system.
Personally if I were to choose I'd hope that Qidian would continue with the ad system, but if ever it would be put down then the so called freemium would be the better option. For me at least.
Each idea gas their own ups and downs, for the fast readers having to pay subscription would be the better choice as through that they can read more for less. Paywall would be better for those that have limited time to read on Qidian, instead of just paying a lot for a month in which they would hypothetically read it would be wiser to just pay for each chapter.
Peiple are arguing that the ad system would be better, and it is for my personal opinion but the question here is only about wether or not you would prefer the 'freemium' system over the paywall system.
No need to argue, the ad system is awesome but it's not in the choices.
Personally I'd like it better if Qidian decided to put both sthe subscription system and the paywall system together. You could choose to pay for the whole month in advance or just pay chapter by chapter.
