Digital stratigies are what all investors are intrested in at the minute, and lg15 and km are serious contenders in this ever growing market, why should we not encourage this step forward?

I can give you two very good reasons why they are investing in the producers of LG15 and KateModern.

1. KateModern launched last year as a co-venture with the social network site Bebo. Prior to the launch, Bebo was a little known site and a small fish in the giant social networking pond. KateModern brought a lot of people to Bebo not just new members, but a lot of advertisers as well, in fact it attracted the interest of AOL who recently bought Bebo.

2. Why invest in LG15, specifically? Simple. There are a lot of webseries; however, LG15 is the longest running and the most well-known. Web content is a very hot area right now, if one is looking to invest in that area why not pick the one with the best track record for success?

why all the whiners here? sure online content has its ups and downs in quality, but someone is going to dominate the field as its develops. TV is advertising driven.

Wow, $5M for this? I guess that proverb about a fool and his money is true after all. It’s amazing that these people are still betting on these same old business models that don’t work. I guess the winning web 2.0 entrepreneur strategy should be:

Take the dumbest thing you ever thought of, add “social networking” or “ad based content delivery” to it, then come up with a business plan that shows no viable way other than advertising to make a profit, and wait for somebody to give you $5M…
