Pitchfork have announced a new commenting/rating system as part of a new subscription where reviews are going behind a paywall after four “free” reviews:
Subscribers will also have access to Pitchfork’s full review archive, which now contains over 30,000 reviews.
For non-subscribers, the News, Features, and Columns sections of the site will continue to be free. And casual readers can continue to read four free reviews per month. But to read unlimited reviews, see the reader scores, and comment yourself or read the comments of others, you’ll have to smash subscribe.
