The only thing that people will really miss will be that story that you weren't expecting or looking to read or searching for that grabs your interest and which make take you to new places that you hadn't thought of. Of course, that may just take you to the places that you're most likely to find such stories, but then again, they don't always show up in the same place. In the end, that's a problem for editors at newspapers and not for the reader. Ultimately, it's a business that is very resistant to change and it's fighting change as its market continues to slip away.
