> Now days [sic] most peer-review journals require hefty subscription fees
You must be new. Scientific journals have *always* been expensive; that is really nothing new (how much? It used to be around $7000.00 (yes, you read that right) for the Journal of Chromatography (12 issues per year, I believe)).
It is a monumental scam, which is why thankfully, open access journals are in fact now on the rise; check the Directory of Open Access Journals (<a href="http://www.doaj.org/" title="doaj.org">http://www.doaj.org/</a doaj.org>)
