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.
my nikka....what matchup could url come up with right now that's worth 30$ ppv and all the typical shyt that comes with a live url event?

When is the last event that you wouldn't have paid $30 for the live stream tho? The sneaker event? Ars/Verb event? You don't have to have Lux on the card to charge $30.

Me personally, I would've paid for three of their last four events. Nome3, SM3 and Born Legacy.

:mjlol:

Nome3 only had "That's Nash" and "nikkas bringin props to win" :mjlol: clips/magic and dna/chilla were not classics in any sense of the word, bigt/shine and rex/diz were :sleep: worthy

Born Legacy was decent, i woulda dropped 10 for it at most tho :ehh: magic/ill was the only legitimately dope battle for me tho :patrice:

So basically you're saying you aren't willing to drop a petty $30 on any event that doesn't have Lux on the card. :rudy:
And you aren't making any points because nobody knows how good or bad an event will be before the event airs. NOME3 is still the best card ever IMO. Nobody could've predicted the battles would be ass. You pay for names on the card/good matchups... Smack would've had my money, but he's stuck on his hood business man shyt. :yeshrug:

:what: i aint say shyt about lux nikka, you stay jumpin to the wildest conclusions for whatever reason

im sayin if a lux and hollow matchup, damn near the biggest matchup ever, is 30, then no way in hell i'd pay 30 for somethin like that sneaker event card :stopitslime:

and im not gonna pretend like i didn't know what happened at those events so you shouldn't of asked that question in the first place :ufdup:

i'd pay for a pg vs. vet card, 20$ tops, but they actin like they dont even want a card like that to happen

Didn't I say the sneaker card is the only card URL has put out lately that I wouldn't have paid to watch on a live stream? :dahell:
You say it's not about Lux, but you're acting like nikkas coughed up $30 just to see Lux v Hollow. Of course that was the draw, but some of the biggest names in battlerap was on that card too.

I still fail to see any point you're trying to make. High stakes could've been just as ass as nome3. Nobody knows the outcome of an event. URL makes some of the best cards in the business.. Cards well worth some measly as $30 for a live stream.

The only thing I'm getting from your posts is that you wouldn't pay $30( like that's something) for a card that doesn't have "biggest match ever" contender. nikkas love to bytch about Smack "holding" free media though. :heh:

i'd pay less than 30 for something that was less than lux/hollow, i dont see what's wrong with that :manny:

you actin like 30 is the end all be all price they can do a ppv for, like me sayin i wouldn't pay 30 is like im sayin i only want it for free :beli:

It was just about url going the ppv route for me.. You bought up the $30 price, not me. You asked me what matchup url could put out thats worth the same price as Lux v Hollow. Again, we didn't only pay for Lux vs Hollow. I gave you three cards that were comparabale to the high stakes card and well worth $30 based off the names/matchups on the cards. I know I wouldve paid for sm3, nome3 and born legacy.

Damn, you for real? The camera men and all that better be apart of that.
yeah 50% is what kotd had to pay and they used ustream as well. i'm pretty sure that doesn't include whatever they had to pay the camera guys.

Card I would pay $30 for

Hollow vs Clipse
Lux vs Verb
Daylyt vs Hitman
B Magic vs Conceited
Surf vs Tay Roc

cut surf and tay roc and that should be the next card imo.

i think this event showed that you can do just fine with 4 battles. cuts down on delays, and saves money which lets you get better matchups.
