'material online' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'accordingly newspaper company starts to provide you' is the wordplay.
'accordingly' becomes 'so' (both can mean 'therefore', or 'as a result').
'newspaper' becomes 'FT' (Financial Times newspaper).
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'starts to' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letters of 'provide you' is 'py'.
'so'+'ft'+'co'+'py'='SOFT COPY'
