Not to make this a debate, but...
What I don't like about the system below (and why I think it hasn't
happened already to any great extent) is:
* Investors will have to put a lot more money up for the developer to
give up ownership of the product to the investors
* Multiple investors "owning" a product and dividing profits is a pain
(and not so lucrative)
Rather, I think it's good to drive down the initial cost (so people
will actually buy in), and allow *someone* to have some real profit
potential, as I don't think a 3rd party Rev product split too many ways
excites anyone just yet.
Just my 2 cents!
Dan,
Why not a capitalist/capitalist model:
1. Developer or users suggest a tool/product & define specs.
2. One or more developers bid to create the tool/product per spec.
at a
specific price
3. "Investors" provide the money and get "ownership" based on the
percentage they contributed
4. When the tool/product is finished all the investors get free
copies
5. As the finished tool/product is sold, profits are divided
among the
investors.
We are actually doing this now - except the developer and
investor are
usually the same person.
