Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General How much would you pay to keep the forums?

My random thoughts:

CEG is great - it'd be a shame to see it shut down.

But - in reality, in the internet era one thing remains constant: people feel that information sharing on the internet is a god given right and should be free and probably even protected by the constitution. CNN, edmunds, your local newspaper - none of them can get people to pay. Now the CEG'r group may be different, but I know it'd be a huge risk for one person to count on financial stability based on paid memberships. (Remeber the group buy fiascos).

Now, there are a few notable businesses in here already that do ALOT of there business through CEG, and are already registered LLC's and such. If one of them stood up and bought Lance out, and then went to a banner ad business model, I see a very workable business model. But hey, I never did go to business school.........
