Yeah, I get that, but I doubt my neighbors are subsidizing the newspaper out of the goodness of their hearts. It's likely they don't know the online edition contains all the news or it's a hassle to read the paper on the internet compared to the paper (which, comparatively speaking it is)...or like many here it's part of their routine to read the paper.
