At the end of the day, someone has to pay for all of the server space, bandwidth, and development costs and how those costs are paid seems to have a strong effect on many important aspects of online social networks, including the fundamental survival of the network (as hosted in and on that particular service).<br/><br/>Apologies if this topic is in the syllabus and I simply missed it!
