Larry Minden1. Not all agencies sell >50% at under $100 as suggested above. Perhaps true for general agencies but not so for specialists and especially not for science.

2. "We are rapidly approaching the point where it will cost less to license an RM and traditionally priced RF image for most uses than it costs to license a microstock image."

Absurd but true. So how do we establish a floor to RM pricing, especially in the hands of distributors who seem not to care. Posted on Jan 4, 2013
