There are journals that priced themselves into irrelevance (Software Practice and Experience, I'm looking at you). I try to read a couple papers a week, usually augmenting with Wikipedia tours to cover subjects I'm weak in.

Most of the ACM DL papers can be found online somewhere else (like via citeseer, or Google Scholar). For moral reasons, don't support the academic pay walls if you can help it.
