Why doesn't E-junkie charge any commission?
E-junkie was not started as a for-profit project. However,
we do pay server and bandwidth bills and we need to be paid
for our time. That's why we charge you in the first place. It
did not start as an absolute for-profit venture and we intend
to keep it that way. It's fun that way and keeps everyone happy.

How can E-junkie provide "unlimited"
bandwidth?
Everybody knows, bandwidth is not free. We pay for a humongous
amount of bandwidth (which is 20% more than our total use) and
rather than allocating parts of it to our merchants, we give
them an "uncapped" access to the complete pool. So
even though the small fee we charge each merchant is only good
for a fraction of the bandwidth we make available, we are able
to provide uncapped access by pooling the bandwidth of all merchants
together (as not all merchants have high bandwidth requirements)
and then adding a 20% buffer. |
