I think you are missing my point, Mitch. The
start-up costs exclude small players from launching their own pay sites. For a person who wants to create and promote his/her own sites, and NOT have an affiliate program, $1,000+ is simply too much. That's why the AVS model still holds a certain allure. One can purchase content, build a site, and not have to lose a grand for the pure joy of accepting credit cards. If you want affiliates, sure, it's definitely worth the investment. But if you only want your private network of sites, it's a complete waste of money. In today's market, I can purchase a lot of content with that same amount cash.
