Considering some of the "unusual" programming ideas from our tv
stations (any West Wing fans here? You know what I am talking
about!), you can see why a model like this might be okay, as long as
those who create the shows can make some money.
I would have thought they made their money by selling box DVD sets at
$100 or so. Oh, and the merchandise...
For example, the Star Wars franchise (according to Forbes.com)
Toys - US$9 billion
Box office - US$5.67 billion
Home video/DVD - US$2.8 billion
Video games - US$1.5 billion
Books - US$700 million
Have fun,
