Do these revenue models need to be sustainable? I noticed 'Donations' is missing. An example could be Wikipedia, which afaik has donations as only revenue.
Some other opensource projects also fund parts of their development through donations, either from businesses or consumers.
It won't make you rich, but it might bootstrap you into some better revenue model.
Odd choice of categorization. Subscription implies that if you're not paying you don't get access, in contrast to (recurring) donations where it's optional and more of a charity.

Also awesome list, definitely saved for later :)
Wikipedia is in the list - under "Subscription", whatever that means. :)
It says the last update was five days ago, so I take it that you missed it. Either that or the "last update" feature is borked.

Eh oh that's strange, I didn't expect it to be under subscriptions so I just glossed over it I guess.
I can't really wrap my head around why the list is entitled (final). More like (abandoned). :P
Fred Wilson explains in his blog post,

that he wanted this "final" version to be edited by invitation only and wasn't sure how to make the change to the original version.
