One example is the brokerage providing access to content through a searchable database
In a fee-based sites, the provider supplies and/or pays for content which the consumer pays to access
The model has had limited success, because we are unwilling to pay for content delivered in this manner
Currently few sites charge consumers to consume content
A recent trend is toward free --> fee, where visitors are able to access abstracted content at no charge, but incur a small fee for the full content
