As far as I know you can use some workarounds: *Use OpenID as an authentication option and accept as many providers you can (usually Gmail, Google Apps, Facebook, Yahoo are used). This will enlarge your user base. *Just leave a demo page out of security constraint: you can serve content to users who did non authenticate, simply adjust the URLs you set as protected in your web.xml *Write your custom User model, a subscription form and a basic authentication check. I'm trying to avoid this, since it exposes to possible failures.
I think for your use case the best thing would be to simply leave open access to users.
