DUBLIN -- Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/a8f916/paywall_strategies) has announced the addition of the "Paywall Strategies for Online Content" report to their offering.

Recent experience in the run-up to, and exacerbated by, the economic downturn has been characterised by an over-supply of inventory and falling CPM's.
