The official WWE Network Subscriber number is....

[Ill Lou Malnati]

Looks like it'll be an on-demand channel here. Not sure about online access

Can't believe they fukked Canada over like that

All those telethon pleas only got 'em 33k. We're in for a rough time when it goes international.

Wasn't the free-trial/begging earlier this month?

This 700,000 number is from June 30th.

I should probably read things before I comment on them.

I'm confused did they not say a actual number on the call and instead said that 409,000 average number for the 6 months ?

I guess it's basically an agreement that they can bill you $9.99 for the next six months. They never took $60 out of my account from the jump. I get billed $9.99 every month on the same day.

Yeah I didn't explain that enough but that's basically what I was asking.

to be fair, this number being taken from June 30th, was buried about half-way down in the document. I just happened to catch it.

This part is smart though. "Company will introduce new payment plans, including a $19.99 monthly plan with no commitment, in August."

Not sure how smart that really is.

"You don't want 6 months? How about 1 month at double the price?!"

 

[Malted Milk]

Excellent.

It's just to push people towards six months plans

Really the $20 month option just let's them do a one off and get a PPV for $20. That's all its good for. Everybody else will be enticed to go 6 months

I can't say it's smart but it's not dumb either. End goal just seems to be get as many eyeballs on the network as possible, without giving free trials out the ass

without commitment it was $15 before.

makes sense to me...this way people don't just get the network for a month for a a specific PPV

I bet its a combination of people who only used the trial (do they count as a one time subscriber?)

dissatisfied by the quality (that 10% )

and people finding out there isn't much of a limit to share an account......what is the limit of users per account?

 

[ADK]

You know its over when the superstars are gonna have to beatbox their own themes.

How many U.S. viewers watch Raw every week? 3-4 million? If so, 700k is decent sounding to me. Of course, not enough to profit from apparently, but I think about 1/4 of Raw viewers is what they should expect to pay for this. International release will probably pick up the slack though.
