But I defer to you as the expert. Would you use it? What I want to know is, if Rich Barton thinks lead-gen is a poor business model, why is it being used? Is selling ads more profitable than selling leads? Also, Zillow continues to add new features which I think will only serve to muddy the waters for consumers and not add to the company bottom line-- which may still be lined in red (I don't know if it is).
