MegaUpload was ad-supported, which IMHO is worse than charging a simple fee.

Yes, the community is going to do as good of a job curating as the New England Journal of Medicine, etc. Please.

Yeah with some peer review and either ad supported, state supported or community supported. Simple fee is too much for something I already paid for. I think paying 5 cents for the bandwidth is perhaps all it could and should ever cost.
