2: I think yes but dunno. 1: your own site or email list

None of these things are mutually-exclusive and a mature media business should look to have product lines in all these categories.

I concur. Newsletters, paid or not are profitable and not necessarily "worse" than selling products.

There are many 'absolute statements' going around these days. Twitter is becoming very opinionated. Maybe has been already but never noticed so much. It's like, not having a strong opinion about something is not having one at all. Very strange.

Products come with customer service, time, employees, liability... Paid writing is much more scalable as a company of 1.
