Quote - Free stuff is wonderful -- no doubt about that. But it doesn't pay for bandwidth. Tell that to CG Share. No doubt much less bandwidth would be required if Free Stuff was all this place was about. Not that I would like that. The Market is good. If CG Share can pay someone for posting Free Stuff, I would imagine that there might be some solid value in having it here at Renderosity, aside from the obvious value to the user.

 

Woah Der Buddy...comparing a site as HUGE as Renderosity with a site that's barely half a year old is just a tad bit silly. We don't even know if ShareCG will live out it's first year yet. It's a new twist on an old idea. Advertising pays for everything. Some sites can survive that way, and some can not. It's a toss of the coin. 

I remember when NetZero was FREE Internet access paid for by advertising. That lasted a few good years but alas, it's now just like the other internet providers. You pay a monthly fee. ShareCG is trying to go an extra mile here as well and pay it's uploaders for content. We have yet to see just how successful this will or will not be.
