Subject: Important Notice About TimesSelect


Dear TimesSelect Subscriber,

We are ending TimesSelect, effective today.

The Times's Op-Ed and news columns are now available to everyone free
of charge, along with Times File and News Tracker. In addition, The
New York Times online Archive is now free back to 1987 for all of our
readers.

Why the change?

Since we launched TimesSelect, the Web has evolved into an
increasingly open environment. Readers find more news in a greater
number of places and interact with it in more meaningful ways. This
decision enhances the free flow of New York Times reporting and
analysis around the world. It will enable everyone, everywhere to read
our news and opinion - as well as to share it, link to it and comment
on it.

We thank you for your support of TimesSelect, and hope you continue to
enjoy The New York Times in all its electronic and print forms.
