True, but I doubt it's linear, and I wonder if there's something unique about December (new customers paying annually to use up their budget, etc)

  Usually its fourth quarter where many businesses move into the black for the year based on how they budget for things, hence things like "Black Friday".

    That's retail for Christmas gifts.

      Yep, but actually many companies unrelated to Retail use this or similar measures as they gain fourth quarter accounting success, pretty common all over the place.

  Nothing unique about December in terms of revenue. Even if people were prepaying large amounts in December (which isn't happening as far as I can tell) that would go into the "unearned income" reserve; profits are only realized when the service is actually delivered.
