Surely paying your users isn't the answer - for starters it's almost an admission it doens't stack up to the competition on it's own! It's also only going to insentivise a small group of users that are very likely to dump the product as soon as the payments stop. They've got to stop looking for gimicks and compete on product.

Just for note google used to pay 1-3 cents per a search sent its way from any site (I used a homestead page) to get me $300-500 checks /mo during highschool.
