But, your program is different, the 200 dollar fee is an interesting twist

I think she went to bed and I'm about to also, but we'll be back to support this thread for as long as it takes.
#1 We didn't feel we could rely only on upsells (toys etc) to pay the bills on 0% on our end. We also pay 50% of those processing fees right off the top, so it's like we're really paying about 107.5% when we look at the books .
We decided to do that $200.00 for a lot of reasons. Not really to KEEP people out, because the webmasters who really make the sales will see the value in it. There is BW to pay and other bills, content etc .. This covers that and allows webmasters to make 100% right off the top.
It will also ensure that we will be able to offer it and not see that part of the program fail.
We have a lot of dam content in there. Everything I ever collected is accessable from every site + 2 complete other content stores + pay for feeds. It really could add up in bandwidth easily if someone was sending a lot of joins.
There will be a lot of people who just do not like this idea, and that's fine. But, it will work for the heavies, and work very well.
