To Ken's point - we reduced our annual billing software expense from $24,000/yr to about $4000/yr by moving away from a per-subscriber-fee billing software to a buy-it-once-and-pay-annual-maintenance billing software. The $4000/yr includes the XL EC2 Windows server instance. In terms of billing and operational functionality, it was a NET0 change.

What is your business model based on again? Why would you deny someone else the same model? I think most people don't realize that you are always going to pay one way or another. Just because it is big chunks every once in a while vs small chucks over time doesn't make a difference. You may pay in other ways like increased employment costs, multiple platforms to perform all the same functions, time in doing triple data entry into those platforms, etc, etc.

I find it frustrating because *everyone* wants a piece of recurring
revenue. Am I just generating revenue to feed to subscriptions?
