Who believes this?
It was, easily noticable by everyone, wanting to reduce the
cost. Which is fine, everyone does so, so why not admit that
it was the primary impetus?
I would not want to outsource control over any larger company
that I were to run to other, even bigger companies.
- maccam94 9y agoPerformance and reliability definitely affect subscription rates. Revenue growth is actually more important than decreasing costs (as long as your costs don't start increasing disproportionately).
- late2part 9y agoI can see how you would think it is only about cost. However, then you've had Amazon tell you "no" when you try to get more resources, and when you've had your business go offline for hours while you wait for news from Amazon, you may want more control.
