When did this CollegePlus start up? I totally had this idea 4-5 years ago... stupid me for not pursuing it. :-)
I have no problem with anyone making a profit on consulting fees for information even if the information that they are providing is readily available for free.
If you really think about it, all of the teaching and information provided in almost all college courses is available for free with a library card and internet access. You pay a school to provide a professor, first for the college credit and second for the information to be presented to you in a clear and intelligible way that is easier to process and understand than it would be to simply go figure it our for yourself.
Don't hate on people that provide a service that you do not need. Other people do need it or else the business would not be successful. Aw... the beauties of capitalism!
