We will not offer your content for sale anywhere else. In the future, we might make the content available on a central Oronjo marketplace, but wont do this without the permission of the content owner and we will use the same fee structure as for content published on your own site (in other words, this marketplace will only be initiated as a service to our users). For the exact terms, see: http://www.oronjo.com/live/content/terms.php Article 6C (etc.) - the 'non-exclusive license' (etc) means that we are allowed to put your content on our server and can distribute it to people who bought the content. About our fee: please check the following link: http://www.oronjo.com/live/content/support.php#whycanistartsellingcontent In short: we are free now, to promote our service and obtain a large user base. Just like the first challenge of a blog is to get visitors by offering free content. Later (think about +1 year), we will start thinking about charging for certain premium services, just like you can do with premium content on your blog. We feel for both a blog owner and our proposition a 80/20 approach will work best (80% for free, 20% for a small, friendly fee). Hope this answers your question, if not, please let me know.

If I put content on the Oronjo server can Orono then use it too and derive income from selling it elsewhere? Also: I find it a bit strange that you offer this service for free when your whole reason for being is about encouraging people to pay for content on-line. It kind of suggests you don't have faith in the idea yourselves? I look forward with interest to your comments and thanks for reading my blog Jeremy Hi Lisa
