Also keep in mind it may not have "worked for him". He made $200k less than he would have using the traditional route. Who knows how long it will take to make that additional $200k from this offering (if he ever will) and I'm skeptical about counting "the long tail" because he would have probably had residuals on a traditional DVD as well.
- vidarh 15y agoWhere does it say he made $200k less? The article says he made $200k profit so far, and that this is less, but it doesn't say how much less. It is also numbers 4 days in. Sales don't stop after 4 days. As for residuals, maybe, but it looks from the post as if he is comparing his (so far) $200k profit to a lump sum payment for the rights, though he's not exactly being explicit about that.
- danssig 15y agoHe personally said that. It was mentioned in this thread. EDIT: Ah correction, he says "this is less than I would have been paid". It's the top comment.
