Paul, while I had zero interest in opening up a paysite I did so a couple of years ago to prove a point to a friend. Under $1000 in non exclusive content, 1 $400 / month feed, and a crappy design an outsourced designer did. I didn't care about the design because I marketed it myself on a hand made non graphical landing page that linked to join.

The results, 1:300 with good retention.

Oh, and I charged $25 for a 7 day trial rebill to $50.

In short I agree with you 100% except that you can survive without 25k down and 0 affiliates.
