Yahoo on Wednesday introduced a new paid service on its site, charging people for access to archived articles penned for The New York Times.

People who search for articles on Yahoo News will get some results from the Times that require them to pay $2.50 to read a story. These paid stories from the Times' archive are listed throughout the search results and in a separate section on the bottom of the page.

The Times charges the same fee for single articles that are more than seven days old on its own Web site. It was unclear whether Yahoo or the Times would be collecting the fees for archived articles viewed on Yahoo News. --Jim Hu, Special to ZDNet News
