Wow I never realised how many cynics there are on this forum! I mean hes basically talking about the same model as sounddogs.com which is a site I for one have used a few times... and i dont remember anyone complaining so much about their service?

FWIW I dont think sounds should be sold by duration, thats like saying it takes the same amount of effort to record a door slam as a gunshot....

In a vaguely related theme, I once pitched an original idea to a certain Sound FX company, who would only offer me an outright buy out per sound.... & it wasnt much.. when i said no thanks they proceeded to commission the same idea from someone else who WAS prepared to sell their sounds for a one off fee... accordingly I believe the 'share the revenue per FX sold' is a very fair method, but to each their own....
