Paying for things we like and have quality its a reality, in both SL and RL, and we do pay for skins and clothes and furniture.

I think in the beggining SL had a cultural environement where paying for a show or to visit a sim was simply not plausible or even seen as ethics, maybe I'm wrong in this, I'm in SL only since march 2007.

But things change a lot, and I guess today this vision is not possible anymore, in the future I think that we will watch more and more services being paid for.

But this implies a cultural change too, and that is not made overnight, people just aren't used to pay for visiting sims or listen to live shows.

And this model of paying 199L for a permanent access is not going to work (at least I think so), I don't mind paying for visiting a park in RL, an entrance fee, not a lifetime payment, in Sl its the same for me. I would pay to visit Black Swan, that I think its a great sim, but I don't need permanent access to it.

Anyway my 2 cents on this
