That isn't the sub, it is the headend.  Street price currently seems to be 
about ∞ if you need them right now.
If these are ever not vaporware it would open some amazing possibilities.  
Imagine a Siklu 10Gig ring with one or two of these hanging off of each one to

Thanks Gino for the link, apparently I’m not the only one who’s thinking about 
this. I wonder what the street price is for this, sounds expensive still per

Re: [AFMUG] OT stock for sale

2019-09-15 Thread Ken Hohhof
Seems to be another case of sell below cost and make it up on volume.

 

Specifically, their strategy seems to have been to sell subscriptions for
$10/mo allowing you to watch up to 30 movies per month, yet if you watched
even 2, they lost money.  They got investors to make up the difference
between revenue and costs.  Apparently they thought if they got enough
subscribers, the theater chains would be forced to negotiate discounts with
them.

 

What could go wrong?

 

1)  The money would run out.

2)  The theater chains would offer their own subscription services.

3)  All of the above.

 

A surprising number of big name companies lose tremendous amounts of money
selling below cost, with investors making up the difference.  Like Uber.  I
suspect all the new video streaming services are selling below cost to get
market share.  Eventually there is always a day of reckoning.  Either the
investors lose their money and the company fails, or the prices get jacked
up.  But investors keep throwing cash at these startups, hoping to get in on
the next Amazon.
