This current phenomenon about crowdsourcing products is similar to the GroupOn&#x2F;flash sale phenomenon, and as the products get shittier and shittier, and as more and more get disillusioned by it, the entire space will die.<p>Kickstarter and IndieGoGo need to do a much, much better job policing this, otherwise they will be out of business in 2 years.  There are too many shitty products with great marketing videos that are taking a lot of money, and they will likely all be disappointing as hell.
