Cadman, I hope it's OK to use your quote as a convenience to underscore a question I haven't seen addressed.
Does or doesn't the advertising space pay sufficient revenue for the maintenance of the site?
Probably more folks would be more willing to support a membership fee schedule if there was a direct answer to this question. There are over a dozen links for ads on this page as I write this. And that's fantastic-- I'm glad that there appears to be no shortage of advertisers willing to buy ad space on TU. As it is now, some pay for the privilege to advertise, some contribute their knowledge free of remuneration, and some reap the benefits of both for free. Seems equitable.
