end of rebills - what would happen...
or if the rumors are true - what will happen ?
end of rebills = end of trials, that's for sure
paysites offering quality service end support to mainatin customers = would happen too
but the general revenue of the industry would probably fall from
$4 billion to $1.5 billion ( or from 3.5 to 1, not sure what are the numbers now )...
many program owners would go out of business and only the strongest ( smartest ) would survive
but do you think that the invisible market hand would take action and since many independent webmasters would't be able to life with such an income drop, they would leave the biz thus leaving more money for those who would be left...
so basically if there're 50 000 webmasters competing for $4 billion, if after the shakeout there will be 20 000 webmasters competing for $1.5, it will mean approx. the same revenue for them as before
any thought on this ?
