What it comes down to:
Is the cost of Supporting IE 8 greater then the revenue an extra X% of users will generate.
Obviously this comes down to:
1) How much will it cost to support older browsers.
2) How many users do you have/what percentage use older browsers
3) Actual and expected monetization per user
Also bear in mind that users of different browsers may monetize at different rates.
- bceagle 14y agoSome good points and I guess the answer is that I have no idea because this is a new product that doesn't have any current users or history to pull from. Also, one thing I just realized. With your comment and similar ones it seems like there is an assumption that users on IE 8 won't actually switch to another browser in order to access the site. I wonder what types of incentives would have to be in place to get someone to upgrade/change their browser.
