While some Ideas are good (I love the collaborative online recording studio) this doesn't address the main point of the other post.
The main idea of this blog is that the answer to "I have lot of users, how can I generate money ?" is "Get more users and more content !"
It's not. More users and more content means more servers, more bandwidth and more money you have to spend.
It seem that in this "business" is only about generating users and user-generated content and don't worry about the money because some "Angel" investor will save you if you have enough users/content. Let them worry about how to get money out of it.
Why not start something monetizing it from the beggining. Why not add the monetizing problem and possible solution (advertising, premium content,...) at the beginning of the process so that when you grow you will see how it scales.
The main problem is not "How I will I monetize this whitout changing too much of my site" , the problem is "Why didn't you think about it before starting this process."

Because that's not how you sell your 2 year old company to facebook for a billion dollars :)
