RGE Monitor is not free anymore

Website provide by Prof. Nouriel Roubini has been quite helpful for the researchers in this area for quite a long time, as I remember the site immediately after the Asian Currency Crisis. I am surprised to find, however, after a certain length of period, that the site is not free anymore. Your have to pay around US dollar 600 a year, and you have to pay US dollar 350 or so a year if you belong to non-pforit organization or you belong to academia.

For researchers, US dollar 600 or 350 a year is not a small amount. Moreover, most of the contents in the site are basically available for free if you know where you could download it. The difference is if you go to the site, you could easily download most of the information relevant to the specific issues that RGE categorises. In addition, I do not think that the readers of this website has been duly notified of the change in advance.

I would like to strongly request the management of GRGE, especially Professor Nouriel Roubini to reconsider his decision and make RGE Monitor available to all researchers and readers for free.
