Ok, here is the kicker, photos, video, music ... they take space. Max would have to pay a much higher rate then he does right now to house all of that stuff. Would it be nice sure, but I doubt anyone can run a free website with the volume of information the cat has stored over the last 15 or so years ... things like youtube, and myspace. They sell lots of ads, even with their revenue generating machine if you look at their bottom line they are always losing money and they are huge corps. An individual running a forum on his own cannot do that with $$ or saturating this place with ads that would kill our dialup users ...

bad idea
