As far as academic journals go most people have some access and don't know it. Most public libraries subscribe to one or more services, and a library card is all they need for that access.
Any wmf sponsored access plan needs to keep this in mind and encourage editors to use access they already have first. If we did that and limited to established editors by request we could probably license by number of seats and come out ahead with respect to efficient use of resources. Targeting these efforts towards areas of systematic bias would also be a way in which the foundation could gently steer projects without actually exerting any editorial control. Anyway great brainstorming hope something comes of it.
