I've been working on an E-Commerce application like OSCommerce, except
mine is object-oriented, with a much better architecture, and a lot of
AJAX. I originally intended to release it as Open Source, and I still
may, but, recently I've been wondering how I could profit off the
script.

Selling the script doesn't seem to be a viable option, since if I sell
the application in full it can easily be duped. My best idea has been
to release the script, but make an off-site file old all of the primary
functions of the application. In those functions would be a script for
displaying the results of a product search, where I could place ads
every 10 or so entries down.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to profit from your applications?
