Zipidee–My oh my what a wonderful fib
Amazing, Awesome, I just don't get it, Web 2.0, Service, Will never make money, Other October 6th, 2007
Zipidee bills themselves as “the internet’s largest (emphasis mine) marketplace for buying and selling digital goods online.”
The only problem is that it’s “beta” and not yet accessible to the public! I’m sure it’s bigger than say, iTunes’ 3 billions songs sold. Or ebay’s sales of digital items.
My question is: do consumers need a separate site to sell digital goods? Granted, this company claims to add DRM to items it sells, which is wildly popular with consumers. But besides creating additional restrictions for buyers, what’s the value prop?
I’m confused.

And to think I’ve been buying at eBay and iTunes, completely missing out on Zipidee and Oddbark!
