Broken Promises + Piss Poor Management = Never Off the Ground

The NetAudioAds - PayPerPlay network was announced with an enormous amount of flurry to build a "publisher pool" to deliver adverting in an auto played audio format it is apparent that they have yet to meet a single deadline that they have imposed on themselves.

Their forum traffic is almost nil as it does appear that the publishers have jumped ship. Even the vocal ones that were holding hands singing Kumbaya and encouraging others to keep the faith have abandoned them.

The Founder of PayPerPlay, Charles Heflin, has abandoned the party if his lack of involvement is any indication. Larry Host, the telecom pariah, uses his intimidation tactics to keep people in line to the point even the ones supporting this effort don't reach out to him anymore.

I think we can now officially mark down the PayPerPlay network and NetAudioAds as DOA. Hopefully the talented people that that started voice2page can regain control of this shell and turn the technology into a viable product.

This reminds me of the auto surf debacles, fortunately people did not lose any money, unless they paid to promote it, just time and expectations.
