I don't intend to explain it before the fact, but if I'm proven correct, you'll be one of the first to know about it. <g> So far, we're on-track. I'm looking at too short a timeframe right now, but it's currently tracking considerably above my expectations. The IH model has few (if any) similarities to the AOL model. AOL is not just a content provider. And they have some huge costs because of that. Personally, I like the SI model but for one thing I see as its "fatal flaw": Lifetime subscriptions. Take a site like this with no lifetime subscriptions and the only overhead being the ISP, the hardware, and 4 warm bodies (a geek, a business guy, an admin, and a lawyer when needed), and you're making a sustainable profit. That's just my opinion and I could be wrong. But I'm betting money I'm right. We'll soon see. Gimme about 6 months and I'll get back to you with an answer. I'm not going to tell you how I plan to do it. But will be more than happy to come back and tell you how I did it, should "it" happen.
