Comment on A new kind of freemium: Give away the whole, sell the piecesparent

That's not how I read it. He will let you embed the stats from his site for free, but its going to have his branding/ads and you can only show the views he offers. If you want a different segment of data or to remove the branding, you'll have to pay.

So for example, he may let you embed a stat sheet about all NFL teams, but if you want one with just the Eagles, you'll have to pay. This is what he means by "giving away the whole thing, and charging for the pieces."

Its actually a really sharp idea, especially for this niche. Kudos to the author.
