I'm in for $100 US. More if it involves shares in a registered corp.

Thats about all I can do until the NZ dollar gets better (damn South Pacific Rupee).

While we collect a total of donation promises over here, we should also consider that many people, who would probably be willing to donate something for this aren't even reading these posts or visit this page and so don't know a thing about this.

How many users has this community by the way?? And how many of these have responded here?

The problem would be, how to spread the word to the people, who would be willing to participate, but don't read this and how to realisitically estimate the total amount that would be reachable AND if this could actually be enough.

I guess this thing can only get off the ground, if the important people support this and make it official. And this will only happen, if there is a realisic chance that enough money could be gathered!

There must also be some way to make the moneygiving promises reliable somehow. So logistical problems come into this also, because either the fans would have to pay money for something, that is not safe to produce results in the end or some (company?) with enough money would have to prefinance this whole thing, which would be quite a risk for them, too.

Anyone have an idea how to pull this off right?

100$ easy. See my post from last night.
The money is already there. Write Scifi and fox. Get everyone you know to do the same. Everyone. Just go to the Scifi/ fox home pg. and mail them. That is all it will take. Get your Mom, your brother&sister, Granny, Uncle Bob, everyone to write. "Bring Firefly back"
Do it now!

Sign me up for $100 for a season, without even thinking about it, more later if I have it.

Ditto! I love this idea/effort - but see the threads pop up, and expire . . . with the same handful of diehard fans posting . . . and some of the same conversations happening over and over . . .

It almost seems to me like we need a slightly different format than that of the thread . . . like a dedicated web page, with links to specific subsections, such as discussions on who controls rights, or how to organize donations/investments, or how different types of subscription models might work . . . maybe places where some specialists could post "briefs," like ANTIREAVER's lawyer friends . . . so that information would be more organized, and not expire as fast in the archives . . .

I have been following the ongoing dialogue between ANTIREAVER and XEROGRAVITY, and I confess I am getting vertigo, torn between hard-headed reality and experience on one hand, optimism about change in the entertainment paradigm on the other.

I am a newbie in terms of technology and being a fan - hell, I was a newbie lurker two months ago! Just tossing ideas out there.
