Ustream gets 50%

:scusthov: :scusthov: :scusthov:

I need to see some sort of confirmation before I believe that. :whoa:
If this is true, there has to be some sort of service out there where they can cut the middle-man(ustream) to maximize profits. No way Smack picks up ppv(at least with ustream) if the streaming service is taking 50%.

Edit: yep, just read ustreams' tos... They get 50% of ticket sales :ohhh:
These guys have to find a way to deliver the same quality ppv with a cheaper service. 50% is a huge cut.

on BattleRapArena nikkas was sayin URL aint gonna do a ppv until they can find a way around bootlegging cuz that shyt cuts HEAVY into profits

UW coulda prolly made 4x as much as they did off of ppv money if they had a way to stop bootleggin and illegal streams completely, that's a shytload of money they missed out on cuz all the battles were on youtube right after the stream ended

Then URL is basically saying that they are never going to do ppv because bootlegging and illegal streams will never be stopped. If billion dollar businesses like the EPL, NBA, boxing and nfl can't stop bootlegging and illegal streams, how could a small pocket business like URL stop it? If this is really their stance, they need to go fukk themselves.

URL is full of shyt... Based off viewers of the live stream, UW ate good despite the bootlegging. If you put out good matchups, nikkas will pay, period. fukk URL.

I really hope UW takes over this battle shyt now. Lets hope they have events every couple months.
