You are trying to paint it like One Lick was showing weakness, so Jonathan pounced. Not true! I saw Jonathan doing big sales, One Lick's sales were slow, so I called him and asked him to promote my stuff. Pretty normal business I'd say.
Thats cool that you want to toss insults at Jon and myself, wrapped up in your cryptic, self serving posts. But it might come back to bite you in the ass. Like when you come crawling to Jon is 6 months asking him to save YOUR ass, and he tells you to GFY.

Maz no disrespect to you. I like your content and more power to you.
But it does not need a marketing genius to give an 80% discount and take a cuut himself. The clients you did sell to must be pretty pissed that one week they were paying xxxx and this week it's being sold out like boxes at a swap meet for x. Whether they stay with you in the future is to be seen.
And you are not even getting x for it because you now have another mouth to feeding off you. For spamming message boards and giving it away.
You do not need to give anyone a percentage if the level of his marketing talent is to give your content away at 80 to 95% off and spam it across the boards.
If I want to give away my content, I'm well capable of doing it myself. In fact have
www.bargainbasement.com which is purely designed to sell sets at $5 to $15 each.

What am I jealous of?
That you did not take our content, discount it 90%, then take a probable 50% commission and give us what is left?
Good joke.
You put up my sales 20 times, I'm no better off, and have a bigger bandwidth bill for the FTP. Plus my content is now worthless. You on the other hand are much better off.
Anyone who thinks this is the future of content sales on the net, is a fool. Because all it will mean is 100s of sites carrying the same content which has to be produced at a price. That will really switch on the surfer.
