Amazon Honor System discussion board.

Hehhehehe
It was either this or MRU.
[8:30:42 PM] []

Yup we're still in upstate New York trying to figure out the future of Fairtunes and our lives for the next 4 months to a year. I've been pretty silent about what's going on. I don't know. I just didn't want to talk about it but I do now as John and I sit here bored in the barn (see the photo from our last NY trip).

We're trying to decide if we should:

  • Sell it and join the acquiring company to take Fairtunes to perhaps the next level
  • Sell it and move on (i.e. John goes to school, I continue as a founding employee of Transpose)
  • Find another buyer or sponsor
  • Keep it to our greedy selves

We don't know what the right decision is and as a result we're pulling out our hair and going crazy.

There was a point when we'd do anything for money. Now we're a littler bit older and a whole lot more jaded. Will a new company even be able to raise the money we need? Will we raise the money just to blow through it and end up shutting down in 6 months? Is money the magic answer to Fairtunes' problems? What is Fairtunes worth to us? How much longer do we want to be involved? Of course, what is the future of voluntary payments in general?

Last night we flipped a coin to decide the outcome. Would you trust your future to a measly 25 cents?

Do you care? Go vote on the future of my dot.com.
