A song is $.99 or $1.29, a game is easily $40-60. I don’t think movie purchases at any one retailer drives the kind of numbers Google was hoping to get out of

- ccouzens 4y agoI meant movies not songs. Eg https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/the-martian/id1039586890 https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/the-martian/id1039586890 Which is the same price as some games Eg https://stadia.google.com/game/human-fall-flat-stadia-edition https://stadia.google.com/game/human-fall-flat-stadia-editio... That's the game I brought when I dipped my toe in to try it out (although I remember it being cheaper than that). > I don’t think movie purchases at any one retailer drives the kind of numbers Google was hoping to get out of Stadia. I have no idea, but it's notable that movies don't need porting to a platform, but each game will need at least a little work.
- bobthepanda 4y agoI think I’ve seen a number thrown around where Google doesn’t like businesses making less than a billion in revenue. According to this, 2021 electronic sales of movies totaled $737M. https://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&id=1644476313 https://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&id=...
