Alas, experience suggests that most people don't value social networks enough to pay for them. Moreover, once a social network has locked in a user and their circle of friends, it's easy to discount their utility as a customer (they're locked in: where are they going to go?) and try to monetize them in other ways.

(Historical example: Livejournal.)
