After the Humble Indie Bundle a new Shopping Portal will be come online. I read this in a German Forum. They take the Principe of the Humble Indie Bundle and the Customer can pay what he want.
The Site will be release on Friday maybe.
It will starts with Indie Games like Azteka, Sleep in Death,MiniOne Racing asf.
After that they will try to get more Offers lke Audiobooks and Casual Games. Maybe the Site is interesting for Gog to get new Customers. They can offer some Games and Customers must to get create a Account.

I reckon these sales are as popular as they are because of the limited run. The pay what you like model is a rare thing, combine that with the idea of supporting the little guy and getting games you've never heard of and cap it by making it a limited time offer and I suspect thats the driving force behind the sales. I'm not sure it'll work as a permanent fixture unless the site has specific games as a weekly pay what you like special and sell the rest at RRP

I totally agree with you.
I think if the site keeps getting new stuff in the long term I think it might be alright.
But time will tell though.

Same here. Which makes me think this model could apply to GOG as well. Super-uber-pay-what-you-want-promos for some GOG titles would be great. If the said games do not sell very well without promos, it could be a nice way to make some money out of them, without any additionnal work.

That's -$5.99, not $5.99.
Nono, I want to pay negative 5.99, as in they pay me 6 bucks to take it
Ou.... Still don't.
