That said it is always worth a try if it interests you. But before you set up shop with a website and invest the time, you may want to try selling it on different venues to see how it goes. You can list your PLR in the classified section at different sites like Digital Point and other IM forums. Some are free. You can use free online services to collect the money and deliver the product.
That will give you a good idea if the market will work for you.

I have been selling PLR on and off since 2005 and must say that in this modern world of post panda I make more than I did in the early days.
But at the same time it is down to:
what niche you are in
what is in your package
what price you are selling for it
I used to own a website selling to the "internet marketing" niche that was full of people wanting to buy products showing them how to make money online and 1 of the product types was PLR and it would outsell everything else. I have never really been that bothered for PLR in the beginning but because it did well I always stuck with it.
For me the majority of my products have been ebooks with sales letters prewritten and because of panda people tend to want these as subscribers deals that are listed on nofollow pages on their websites or as membership content.
With niche selection if you go for niches that no one is interested in then they are not going to sell at the same rate as going for the big niches. I would personally only ever consider selling in the internet marketing or weight loss niche.
I also find that multiple price points work well and that offering a variety of products between the prices of $3 and $147 is the best way to go.
It is a lot more hardwork to set up and get working but once it is it can be passive income and you could easily within 6 months match a monthly writing income.
