we sell a lifetime license that can be hosted on your own servers. the hosted cms is just more economical as you dont have to rent a server and its either $45 or $95 depending on the features you want.
the buy or build question is basic to technology projects. if there is a suitable software package available, you never build because building software costs 3-50x more than buying it.
a custom cms is going to have problems and will definitely lack features that professional packages already have built in.
you sell tube scripts. do you recommend people build their own tube script from scratch too? even if their requirements meet your specs?
im a programmer and i always look for off-the-shelf software for new projects before diving into a huge development cycle that can take months of long hours. its just common business sense.
