Recently I saw at comment on slashdot suggesting how to pay for MP3s. Suppose you know
100,000 people like a particular artist. If they all aggree to pay $1 upfront for the
release of the next album then it is released. If the artist does their job - and
keeps turning out good albums people will keep buying. Payment is based on reputation.
It turns out that there is a site set up to do stuff like that - loudvoices.com.
It looks like this could be used for any IP and most anything that government does -
and could essentially replace the tax system. Immagine funding a space program this
way !
