yes please ;-)
not enough of this type of content, and members love it.
i've turned purvette.com into an ebook site, making all of purve's past content into ebooks. an audio ebook would sell really well, and is a very marketable concept.

I always thought so but had a hard time getting webmasters to see this and want to pay for this type of content. They are use to buying stories really cheap and throwing them up. They would never spend the money to pay for illustrated story. They feel that it should be about quantity and not quality. The educated surfer who will actually pay his rebilling wants more.
Producing hot audio content and good illustrated stories is more expensive but I think it brings a whole other, more secure market, especially if it’s exclusive and no other site has it. If I hopped on a plane and recorded Jenna, paid her $500.00 for a 15 minute recording that I scripted for her, coached her, etc. there’s a lot of money in a 15 minute recording but I’m going to sell that way beyond 500.00 and always own it. Audio content would be great, like E-Zines as pay once items. I think that if the content is really hot niche and you publish an ezine package that had a few stories, maybe two audio, a pictorial and sold it for $30.00 they’d buy it and come back to see what else you’ve got. Selling good audio with pictures that can be downloaded into cell phones is going to be hot. It’s much sexier then video.
On the rest…
Yes, I’ve always noticed that Oprano had a more seasoned diversified crowd. It’s really the only board you see me on. I’m excited about winetalk.com because I see so many great people there.
I think that a Restaurant named Oprano would be fabulous. You know long before adult I worked in Hotel & Restaurant in south florida. I actually know quite about the biz. I use to want to open my own and could have many times but I would only want to do it if I already had money. It’s a tough business, for sure. You would be very interested in the marketing concept I have for my new herb business. Not only does it cater to home consumers but we have a line just for chefs and a packaging that helps them buy live herbs, store longer and nothing beats fresh LIVE herbs. I keep basil and rosemary by my back door and pick it when I need it.
I’ll keep you posted on the content stuff.
