"making ydl rich"

[Rick Thomas]

For what it's worth, continuing the analysis I started a while ago, 
the marginal cost of providing a YDL.net/enhanced subscription is 
quite small.  It mostly consists of providing you with the promised 
installation support, should you happen to need it.  Most 
YDL.net/enhanced users won't need it.

The up-front costs of the program are not huge either: take a 
couple of machines out of inventory, load some software on them, 
and connect them to the Internet.

There's a lot more more to it than that, of course. Nevertheless, I 
suspect that at the end of the day the best way to funnel money to 
the YDL developers is to buy a YDL.net/enhanced membership.  And 
that's why they started the program. And that's why I joined up the 
first week it became available.

Dan, please correct me if I'm wrong!  If YDL.net/enhanced is 
turning out to be an expensive boondoggle for you folks, I don't 
want to be seen as encouraging people to join up just so they can 
cost you money.
