| Sep 21, 2016 at 12:22 | comment | added | user9646 | @FedericoPoloni If you get down to it, when you buy a video game, a movie, a song... It's just a (very large) number in the end. | |

| Feb 23, 2016 at 17:29 | comment | added | Joe | @Kimball - there are plenty of DOIs from the 1600s, e.g. psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/11666-000 | |

| Jan 29, 2016 at 23:51 | comment | added | Alexandre Vaudrey | The cost of a DOI is seemingly variable, but an open-access journal as for example the Winnower pays about 6 cent per doi. | |
| Jan 29, 2016 at 23:22 | comment | added | Kimball | I also think DOI's would just complicate things (they're not clearly pointing to the arXiv, wouldn't always point to the most recent version, ...) | |
| Jan 29, 2016 at 23:21 | comment | added | Kimball | Also note the arXiv (1991) began before DOI (2000). I knew about DOI's much later than arXiv ids. | |
| Jan 29, 2016 at 23:18 | comment | added | Thomas Arildsen | How much per paper, I wonder? | |
| Jan 29, 2016 at 23:05 | comment | added | JeffE | Because DOIs cost money. | |
