Living the Dream ::: Websites that generate revenue hands-free

We have a unique opportunity to run a business hands free on the web. Atomic Zombie is a good example. They sell bike plans that download (order fulfillment) automatically upon payment. That's the dream. That's what you get if you work with digital media as product.

Have you had success in this arena? We'd love to hear about your experiences here at Startup City.
