Good riddance! They only let you read the intro to an article before throwing up a toll gate.

If you are foolish enough to pay then what you get is indoctrination into leftist views rather than objective news reporting. Bye, bye, NYT and please don't return. You won't be missed.

You can already get plenty of left wing propaganda for free from sources like MSNBC, PBS, CNN, NY Times, Wash Post, etc. Why would you want to pay for it?

There are literally hundreds of millions of Apple users out there worldwide. I've never encountered any one of them who asked what brand to buy when considering an upgrade to a computer, tablet, smart phone, or smart watch. They only ever ask which Apple model to purchase. Apple's brand loyalty is the envy of all their competitors. We've seen negative articles like the one from this WSJ clown over the years. These naysayers almost always have a Windows PC on their desk, an Android phone in their pocket, and an advanced case of product envy.

Those two papers are fake news anyway. They take their marching orders from the DNC just like CNN and MSNBC. The important thing is for Apple to sign up Fox News and the Wall Street Journal so subscribers will be getting real news rather than left wing propaganda.

Settling the lawsuits wouldn't solve the much larger issue which is Qualcomm's pricing model. Apple would have to be tied and quartered to give in on that issue. The other larger issue than the lawsuits is the bad blood between the two companies. Apple really doesn't want to do business with them. 

I don't think it is critically important for iPhones to have 5G in 2020. Getting the 5G infrastructure built out and bugs ironed out will take a while. Apple's customers are not going to switch to Android in order to get a 5G phone one year earlier.
