why does it not make sense?
example:
i sell a WMV video with 704x396 and 1500 kbit/s and the same clip in WMV with 1280x720 at 3000 kbit/s
first of all: the HD version needs twice the storage, but we can agree that storage nowadays is not that crucial anymore - pricewise.
second: the encoding of the HD version takes 2 or 3 times longer and therefore occupies my encoding PC more than the low resolution version. while i can encode 30 clips in 1500 kbit/s per day i can only encode 10 or so of the 3000 kbit/s clips.
and finally: which one of those two would you expect to make more sales when you put it on your website? I think we can agree the HD version does.
so: please explain me why I should sell the HD version for the same money as the lower resolution clip. while you make more money with it?
i think the adult online business is one of the only places where the rules are completely reversed. when i buy a Porsche i expect to pay more than if i would buy a Saturn. but i know i get a better car. same applies to nearly everything else in your life. just in this case as a content producer i am supposed to shut up and deliver everything at the highest possible quality for pennies? No, Sir, I am sorry.
but i completely agree with you regarding exclusive content - once again, I am talking non exclusive only.
