A
Explanation: A) Fee-based models require users to pay a subscription fee to view their content. A dating service that charges fees to its members is using this model. A company with an intermediary model buys a finished product from another company and then sells it to consumers. A company with a community-based model allows users to interact with other members who have a similar interest, such as playing a specific online game. A company that relies primarily on an advertising model generates customers through placing ads on other websites.
