a) Does anyone of you pays SCG to read paid articles? How are those paid articles differ from free articles?
b) tcgplayer also used to provide paid articles. What happened to make them all free now?
c) Have you ever felt that articles in these two websites are advertisement in disguised? 'Oh, this card is useful because it fits into deck X, Y, Z!' and then the link to buy the card is there.

GMR21=OYS, I know you.
Salt is part of the game. Deal with it.
Think of it this way..
Some people would rather buy a book on the day it gets released in stores while some would rather wait a few months to borrow a copy from the library for free.
This is essentially the same thing and a matter of time-sensitivity.
Those who want the information about cards/decks/etc (be it factual statistical data or merely opinions and speculation) at the first available opportunity will often pay. In your case (and most for that matter), if the information isn't urgently needed desired, simply don't pay for it.
However, no matter what you do, never forget that information (generally speaking, albeit not necessarily information pertaining to Magic) will always be the world's most valuable resource.
Anyhow, the best I can come up with myself is a game in the top 8 of a PTQ back during Urza block in which we were starting game 3 with time already expired, so the tiebreaker rule was that whoever had more life after 3 turns would win. And I lost to... healing salve.
