There's room for all sorts of business models. Ultimately, the market decides - if PayPerPost is providing a service that people aren't interested in, not enough bloggers would sign up to sustain it. But while I may not support PayPerPost directly, I support their existence and chance to give it a shot. BTW I'm checking out Blogcritics right now... Well hey, there’s another angle.

So providing value in that way for pop culture-junkie bloggers provides value, in our view, to both our 1,700 writers and to our readers.
