you realize the amount of cash you have to dump into a site like these to get them going? do you have 300-400K sitting around ready to pump into a black hole and bet that you can start making a profit in in 2-3 years?

these numbers where posted at one time on this forum:

Now some numbers to play with:
CCbill fee's 12.5% or so, often split with affiliates on revshare.
Bandwidth cost per member per month: $2.69 for myself
Content production & purchases per month: $3.54 per member.
Affiliate cut: 50%
Average membership price: $30.00

Affiliate earns $13.13 per sale (no ccbill split fee)
Owner earns $7.75 per sale

As you will see that is more than 15% profit for yourself. Of course as your member numbers go up your content costs per members go down. Also depending on your hosting often the more you use the less you pay per MBPS.
