You don't need much resources to run a newsserver :-)) People think servers
are freaky, strange, advanced things, but they're just like any other
application, nothing special. They've got resources to run a web and
uniserver, so they could just get a free or cheap newsserver and run it on
the webserver machine. If they take the free option, it'll cost them
about... $0.00 :-)) and very little in effort.

Well, there's a difference, because SHOUTCast is a free product and Live365
(I think) is a commercial product, meaning that it'll just be like giving
the Live365 people money while increasing your own maintenace costs that
you DON'T get payed back by selling your product. Now, with a universe
cooperation, there could be money in it for all the cooperating universes
because people would get cits and worlds in several of them, increasing the
community and registrations in all of them.

I'd actually be interested in seeing the OW version of AWNews. But
you'll have to tell me where it is, as "www.ownews.com" appears to be
some sort of Chinese company, and there's no mention of any news on the
OW website...

no I was saying that in Activeworlds.INC you get basically as much land as
needed in aw for $69.95 a year and in some other places you pay about $39.95
for a little bit of of land you have to ask for, in some you have to have
time based or event winning to earn VR$ to but lots.

Our Jpg yards are at present covering a world size of a p100 world, can you
see any other Universe handing over that much land for jpgs?

Although some must get of with building object yards all over the place and
wasting space best used for creative building..
