This is interesting. Instead of offing $25 for a newsletter could groups offer Iphone apps of custom feeds on an issue? the model would be to pull a bunch of really great feeds (video, issue briefings, chat) and actions together onto one app that users download (and pay for as a donation). Speaking of which, has any group ever offered a briefing, coverage of a rally, etc. as a downloadable Itune to raise money?
