In addition free still seems to be doing quite well.. Payed advertisement space on many tgps are still top $$ in price, tgp gallery listings on free tgps still get signup ratios that are very profitable..
In my opinion the pay per view industry and way of bussiness has single handly destroyed the boxing industry.. Once a very profitable sport on free Television networks, is now a dying hurting bussiness. A sport without the spotlight it once had.
Sure people in Vegas, and die hard boxing fans say the sport is great, but your avarge Joe doesnt know even know who Roy Jones Jr. is.. And many critics have been saying for over 15 years he is the best pound for pound fighter..
Why is there no attetnion on him, because the free media has been shunned away from fighters. You want boxing, you pay for it on payper view or special cable networks.
Now look at the talent less annoying back street boys.. You hear their fucking music sooo damn much on the radio it makes my nuts itch! You figure how could they make soo much $$ in selling music that sucks especially if it is saturated on the radio waves and MTV FOR FREE! Yet these bastards are non talent CD selling machines!!
Make access to them more difficult and get rid of the free access to see them on MTV, and hear them on the radio, they are nobodys. Not making the crazy loot that they make now..
Go figure.
