I know the rules of this thread included not asking about financials, but I've been wondering about how to fund an audio-book/radio drama/podcast such as this one. I've seen the youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj3OswgPeBo) in-studio session and there has to be some serious costs to putting this together. This is not run on a shoe-string and volunteerism.

I'm not asking about the specifics but I am curious about how you got started finding the funding. The advertizing angle does not seem to be dominant. There is a DONATE button on the website and maybe that works to some degree but in my mind the left and the right side of the ledger doesn't add up.

Basically the question is how did you guys do it?
Thanks

PS maybe this has been addressed in another thread that I haven't found yet.
