Would you still use Facebook if it started charging its users?
If Facebook started charging a monthly or annual fee, would you still use it? I know some people who get a lot of value out of it, and I know some who use it only because it's free.
I wonder how much their user base would decrease? Increase?
After speaking with a friend, he said "It depends." If it was like $1 a month, then it would be worth it. Anything more, then it would not.
What would be your dollar/currency threshold?
- JonathanWCurd 16y agoNo for me. If they started charging I think it wouldn't be too long before another free service came in and started to eat their lunch (read freeloaders would defect). Of course even if they lost hundreds of millions of users to some competitor they would still be a viable business. Look at yahoo.
- travellight 16y agoI'm guessing you're referencing Google beating out Yahoo? Could you elaborate more? Is Yahoo still a viable business minus their acquisitions?
