But to do that they have to pay the model out of their own pocket and then hope to recoup that investment later.
So it seems that selling a set 10 to 15 times is now a maybe.

At last someone came up with the real reason. Non exclusive is not as saturated as some would have you believe.

Because 15 sales, over it's lifetime, does not saturate a set on a medium with 1000s of outlets.

Wondered how long it would take before someone came up with the answer. Of course I knew it already. Just wanted to get people talking about content, exclusive or non exclusive.
