I have to believe it is a $125 million/year+ category and growing at 15-20% annually. Just as an FYI, JibJab.com I believe originated from greetings before "This land". Michael how about Month2Month.com as an alternative. Let the viewers decide.

Hallmark just took the same approach and although I don't know Hallmarks numbers I would bet they are better off just asking for a subscription fee for a single year. Otherwise, an old concept with a different twist. I wonder why we dont see all those talking dogs, cats, parrotts etc on American greetings anymore.
