Article for only Premium Members

Hello. I'm quite frustrated about something. For some reason, Bruce Pandelofini's (or whatever his name is) insightful articles are now only for premium members. Why? They weren't last month. Or the month before. Or the month before that. What changed? And why? This angers me because I am always looking forward to his articles and it really doesn't seem necessary. There's already enough stuff that free members cannot use. So why this, chess.com? I would appreciate an answer from the staff, but I will read all comments, of course. Thanks.

Why? Because he isn't doing it for free - do you ever complain about having to buy a quality newspaper to read its articles?

I have a good idea of what the staff would say.

Haha. I like the comments I just want an explanation from the staff. Or the commies, right @kaynight?

       Its basic supply & demand. Bruce has to make a living, and if you care about chess, put some skin in the game.

What I don't understand is why it suddenly changed this month without notice.
