Sell Access To Your Torrent at Prodigem
Gary Lerhaupt is a smart man. This was initially made evident with his release of the Torrentocracy plugin for MythTV, and furthermore so with the his launching of Prodigem, a service/community that tracks and seeds torrents licensed under the Creative Commons. He's now added the ability to sell access to your content. Consumers sign up for a prodigem account and then pay for the content using a credit card through PayPal. Prodigem collects the money, takes a nominal amount for overhead (10%) and mails the content owner a check every month. I'm glad to see this happening in general and I'm estatic to see it in Gary's hands, cause if anybody can make this work well, it's him. On a related note, Prodigem has had a bit of a makeover and as of the beginning of the month was legally incorporated as Prodigem Inc. Congratulations Gary!
