But Ken.....how would charging a fee increase the pps?

As it is now, we have revs from advertising on the site, but those numbers have done nothing for the pps.

So how will revs from user fees increase the pps?

TLM has to first publically report those numbers and we can't count on him doing that.

Until there is reporting, we don't fly.

Concur?

Your prediction may come true someday....maybe sooner rather than later.

I agree with You that Mr. Devellano is not going to let millions slip through his fingers--however, I think it will come in form of obtaining a buyout rather than converting hypster.com into a paying service.

I expect a buyout entity to buy hypster.com for the purpose of mining existing user base into their paid subscription services.

If a buyout offer can't be obtained I would agree that the BUNM management team will be constrained to begin charging.

Profitability is now a must in the 'new normal' of this economy. Hope alone doesn't cut it anymore.
