My question is regarding the apparent contradiction surrounding PGB(CORRECT ACRONYM?) and its business model. They are used by some 4 million users worldwide and yet they have no revenues and had to sell at much less than the $150 million the VC's put in. Why couldn't they get revenues with so many users, and how will neta generate revenues now that they own the technology? Is this the nature of "shareware" products?
