I definitely believe in Membership. Heck, make access to WONDER greatness via Membership only.... ;-)
Kind of like the Joomla CMS model. You get Joomla (wo) for free but to add that sexy video membership component,
you head on over to another vendor to purchase a 1, 3 or 12 month membership for access to forums, updates, etc.,
and then you download the latest version of the open source code.
So for instance, Guru Chuck could man the "ChuckWOverFlow" section of the website answering everybody's question.
The Forum could have discussions on the different D2W frameworks. Heck, you could add themes.. NouveauModern
or such.. all for the low price of 39, 69, or 99.
I could offer my Joomla construction services to help make all that work.
