The traffic impact or Digg, especially if the Journal were to go free would be major. As I wrote on my blog today, access to an additional 15 million visitors would definitely change Digg's status.

If it begins with "http://digg.com", then they show the page for free - even if it's part of the paid content. It's a very week form of security that can be easily spoofed. It seems that the WSJ is pretty close to giving up on a subscribers only area.
