You know who you are, the few of you who do PPV streamed events. I know there are great free streams to, so perhaps the title of this thread is misleading(sorry)
Please bear or bare with me for a second, I'd rather bear than bare with you guys
First off, let me say I appreciate your work and dedication Pat, JCIN, etc.
My question is a result of a poll on here, I understand your biz numbers, are your biz so I kinda dont expect answers but a "Fuzzy" answer or "kinda close, kinda sorta" answer is close enough. If its cool ,if not i respect that.
Its been my understanding for many years that when you switch from "Free" to "PPV" on a stream you lose 70%-90% of the viewers(i know it varies for many reasons).
So my question is(finally)
Is the 70%-90% about the number?
The reason I ask is I saw the BB poll of who would buy the PPV and it reflected those numbers. Seems to me it would better serve BB if they had as large of audiences as possible. And since PPV ain't their main $$$ maker, it might be a penny wise, pound foolish move. Seems to me, i'd want as many people watching as possible and not lose X%(has to be over half).
Thanks,
eric
