If it costs $35 for 10 scenes, why do you then jump to $35x200 ? Where are you getting 2000 scenes from?
Previously you mentioned 200 scenes, not 2000.
Secondly, i reload 120 tickets for around $67 which would be 200 scenes for under $400 (for expensive 3.5 ticket scenes), not 7000!
You misread my post, I never said two thousand I said 210 and 200. My point is that sineplex releases about 70 scenes about +- lets say 5 a month. For three month that would be 210 scenes. Most people would buy 35 tickets as it's the entry level. Most people don't plan ahead and buy 250 tickets for $219.90 which is the most expensive plan, which is really expensive, especially consider it's not unlimited.
for one month with 35 ticket you can buy 10 or 12 new scenes depending on wheather it 3, 3.5, or 4 tickets. So for lp to make money after people buy lets say 35 tickets, they have to keep buying more and more tickets. so say you buy 3 month membership thats $80 for 40 tickets. again that probably 2 extra new scenes a month.
So my point is the buying power from a regular joe would never match the output of scenes lp produces a month. I don't think there huge amounts of people buying tickets like crazy, just to keep with output. So a customer has to be very selective with his ticket. Also the incentive to keep buying ins't that great which is the main point of my argument, since buying lets say 35 ticket for one month only gives you access to 10 to 12 scenes out of 70 scenes which lp releases a month. That's a pretty lousy ratio. IF you buy the max tickets available which is 250 ticket, and than you divide by 3 tickets it = 83 scenes. which sound good but one month lp released 84 scenes in one month, meaning there are still huge amounts of scenes still to be download which you cannot watch even after you paid $219 for 250 tickets.
PC says wait 18 months until they become free. Many of us might die in 18 months who knows what will happen in 18 months. So my point is the reward for buying tickets is not that great. Lp charges what hollywood charges to go to the cinema. Hollywood movies spend millions of dollars for 1 h 30 minutes movies.
But like I said it's there business, lp can do what they want, I just think they would make more money from a regular membership. There's better incentive to buy with regular membership. I hope lp makes plenty of money and they all become rich, I just think it a little to expensive for an average joes such as myself.
