> - the Club is pure profit for Mandrake

  Does bandwidth for the special download access cut into the profit much? 
Also, something I was wondering, does the download section just have 
individual downloads, or does it have the commercial CD iso's? 

  Oh, on a related idea, someone I was talking to suggested to cease offering 
Mandrake ISOs like SuSE has with their ISOs. I said, I thought it was ashame 
to discontinue ISOs downloads, but came up with two similar solutions that 
might route more money to Mandrake:

  1.) Do something like TransGaming. Maybe say, "No more release ISO's" until 
we reach profitablity/get 10,000 mdk club subscribers, or something like that.

  2.) Make ISO's available only to MDK club subscribers.

  Neither are ideal, but both are less drastic than what SuSE did, but still 
put pressure on people to pay a bit.
