As you may know, Beoworld receives no funding from B&O and is totally dependent on the subscriptions paid by its members and from advertising. The subscriptions actually hardly scratch the surface and yet despite this, Beoworld offers a vibrant and informative forum, a Prize Draw that must offer some of the best prizes for a tiny stake, and a huge number of user and service manuals that you will find nowhere else.
To keep the site moving, Beoworld is constantly investing in updated software and the latest incarnation will be seen fairly soon, allowing better Blogs and accessible Galleries in which you can share your pictures.
All of this has to be paid for and Beoworld since it entered its new guise has not asked for any money for which you get nothing. Only Lee has to continually pay out!
So my suggestion to help the site balance its books and allow us to keep improving is for all of us interested in keeping the site going to buy something from the site shop. I suggest the Latte mug would be a suitable low cost item that each of us would probably use and which help support the site. Why not call this the Beoworld 2008 item and buying one (or more!) marks us out as true supporters of Beoworld. I would take it as a personal favour for as many people as possible to do this - I am buying three now.
