As someone who grew up with the internet, I view newspapers as containing yesterday's news with limited reporting, and accordingly have no interest in reading them. Not only do I not want it at my door, I find it annoying and environmentally wasteful and never bother to pick it up. I also take very little time to eat breakfast and generally do so on the go. No time to even read the paper in the morning if I wanted to. I think this trend is backed by all of the recent financial struggles of all newspapers and circulation cuts.

That said, my parents (in their upper 50's) still read their paper everyday and probably would be very annoyed by this decision if they traveled for business like I do.

Out of curiosity, how old are the people who actually still want the paper at their door every morning?

I am 27 years old and most of my co-workers are in their mid 30's or below, and few and far between read the paper when traveling. I read all of my news via the internet by checking my iGoogle page during various downtime during the day.

Not trying to say this in a "get with the times way", as I recognize that different people have different habits and there is nothing wrong with either way. Just curious if age/different time period habits is the driver of different opinions here.
