I don't get it. There is a huge number of beta-neutral vol strategies, from simple term structure plays to dicking around with VXX, VIX futures etc. There are hedge funds out there that ONLY trade volatility as a product. Yet time after time you get people saying either of two things (a) nobody can make money in opitons or (b) you can only make money selling options.
