Has any one else notice this.
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, there are other paysites!
Motoki:
Yeah but most of them people set up themselves for themselves or their friends only. And then there are the ones that are on the surface free sites, but make you make a "donation" to get anything good. ::)
TSR is easy though, they have everything all set up. All you do is upload. And they skulk around various sims sites and private message people with secret offers to try and snatch them away. From what I've heard, first they offer you a free membership and if you turn that down then they offer you money. Most people don't turn that down but a I know of at least a few of the more reputable in the community who have.

I despise Steve and his moderator flunkies but I like some of the creators there, even if they are allowing themselves to be prostituted out by Steve the pimp, and I am a total download whore so yes, I am coming out of the closet and admitting to downloading a whole mess of crap from them.
I haven't given them a cent though and don't intent to.
Ah, that's more like it, you're actually socking it to them then. People who download without caving into subscribing must annoy the hell out of people like Steve and his ilk. Go Motoki :D
Motoki:
Not really. I somehow imagine him sitting on a lounge chair in the French Riveria drinking a Mai Tai. He's raking in so much money I doubt he cares. I think they just have the free rotations to improve their image. ::)
But I figure hell, I might as well use their bandwidth if it doesn't cost me. And I won't like, I'm addicted to downloading custom content. ;D
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, SimFreaks2 is also a paysite, but Heather offers facilities to all good creators, and the site has ethics and a philosophy which I do happen to agree with. Moreover, the site keeps records of what you've bought, so if at any time you lose your downloads, then all you need to do is redownload.
Oh, and Motoki, in case you wondered, there are some freebies available there.
