I personally do not like subscription models. I understand they are great for the pocket book of the service but I prefer to pay when I use rather than pay and sometimes not use.

Interesting. I'll try to see if there is a model around what you mentioned.

Interesting. I'll try to see if there is a model around what you mentioned. I hope so, bitcoin is really good for the micropayment model. For example, I wanted to read a Wall Street Journal article that required subscription. I don't want to pay for their subscription, I would not use it enough. However I would have gladly paid the equivalent of a dollar to read the one article. That wasn't an option, so they didn't separate me from any of my money and I didn't get to read the article. We both lost out. It would be great if there was a bitcoin entepreneur that helped places like the WSJ make that happen without the WSJ needing to commit to bitcoin and invest in the web programming to support bitcoin processing themselves.

Seems there is a lot of people working on this already such as BitWall and a few others. But I hear what your saying!

Figured that would be the biggest selling point Not sure. I'm wondering if subscriptions on sites such as 1fichier, uploaded.to, rapidshare, etc. wouldn't beat pr0n. Newsgroups might be worth a try, too.

[OVER] RIDDLES 2nd edition --- this was claimed. Look out for 3rd edition! I won't ever ask for a loan nor offer any escrow service. If I do, please consider my account as hacked.

Newsgroups might be worth a try, too. True, any of those would work I'll check them out. For right now going to offer 3 sites Hulu, Netflix and Spotify then open it up to any subscription service. Newsgroups is another one.

You just are forgetting it's much harder to find a wandering goat when you're in a hotel room in NY or Berlin.
