NYTimes: 100,000 Paid Subscribers, 62 Million Unique Visitors

We all had our doubts on the NYTimes Paywall: Read NYTimes Paywall Impact and NYT Paywall Cost - but Times Co. has released some stats that they claim are 'encouraging':

"The New York Times Co. released its first figures on Thursday since it began charging for full access to NYTimes.com, saying it has signed up more than 100,000 paid subscribers in three weeks.

Robinson said declines in traffic associated with the move to start charging for full access to NYTimes.com were "within expectations" and the site received around 62 million unique visitors in March."
