The Times and Sunday Times newspapers will start charging to access their websites in June, owner News International (NI) has announced.
Users will pay £1 for a day's access and £2 for a week's subscription.
The move opens a new front in the battle for readership and will be watched closely by the industry.
NI chief executive Rebekah Brooks said it was "a crucial step towards making the business of news an economically exciting proposition".

by Monda on Sat Mar 27, 2010 06:17 AM PDTIt makes so much sense since we don't have to pay for many favorite newspapers and news magazines anymore. And also because unless donation drives are announced, readers forget where we go for our knowledge of the current happenings around the world. Let alone being published on our individual voices.
