You asked us, "what on earth do I do now?". I recommend you start another post and change your question to "how do I monetize millions of users?".

Give us a description of your market without revealing your business of course, customer profile (age, income, etc) , how much information you have on them (do you have emails? location? interests etc), and how much time they spend on your site.

I'm sure you'll get much more practical and useful advice from that thread on solving the problem rather than the commisseration here on your bad situation.

Very true! I will wait a week and gather those thoughts for a post next Sunday.

Of course, it's not that we haven't thought of things, but how much good time do I want to throw after bad?

But how insular I have been to not think first of posting that question. Thanks!

You may very well be able to sell the company simply for the user base...
