???????????????????
as long as people write their own notes u can just force them to hand rights over to fsn

Edit: @below reply: or you are slack. who the fk is gunna sue a what is essentially a filehost that is providing a SERVICE to its users? the only legal minefield i can see is people photocopying textbook pages out etcc. i mean, look at the huge abundance of online literature sites or whatever that have no legal problems whatsoever.

ill gladly (and im sure there are more uh "educated" people than me here willing) to do it free


--- Quote ---2) You might find it trivial, but it's a cost/benefit analysis. Monetarily incentivising the system might benefit the consumer and thus would drive up consumer interest and use, but would that negate the loss of money and resources in setting up such a system?

MORE USERS = MORE REVENUE FROM ADS, if u model it right u can sustain profits after paying users out

i have to ask but who brainwashed you into thinking this model isnt viable

enwiabe:
Reg, it's a legal minefield... trust me. If you have a better idea, please, I'd love to hear it. If it has merit, and gains the support of FSN, then I'll gladly implement it.

1) Time + resources - Setting up a committee? That kind of committee would need to be paid. I do like your idea of using the rating system (which will already be in-built when the site goes live :D) to do it, but again, it's the massive wall of bureaucracy that limits the success of such a venture.
2) You might find it trivial, but it's a cost/benefit analysis. Monetarily incentivising the system might benefit the consumer and thus would drive up consumer interest and use, but would that negate the loss of money and resources in setting up such a system?
3) You can't have a committee check for plagiarism. Wtf? We're not the CIA...
4) Legal implications are everywhere. As I said before, this idea is a legal minefield.

nak:
With the ads, do we have to click it in order for you to get some revenue or is it as long as it appears on the site you still get revenue?
