you have to understand the power a blu-ray gives.
think this way, a blu-ray is like a BMW. its powerfull. Done right it can blow you away.
A website can do a lot, but its like a Lada.
In other words put a ble-ray onto your tv and sit back with perfect quality. then throw in all the options for the person. a click of a button he can switch angels, mabe opt for 3d, or listen to it in french, german and so on. mabe zoom in.
now with a pc, he is having to mess about looking at tiny vids. even if it fills his monitor its not as big as his plasma. switching options may take time, site may crash or run slow.
sure he can plug his pc into his tv, but most peoplew will not bother.
he then has that film to keep. he collects them.
but on the website, sure he sees the odd update each week, but thinks, i have seen it now. time to cancell. mabe re-join for a month in a years time to get the new updates.
heck a lot of people join with the free join or $3 trial option, just to download then leave.
the truth is at the end of the day, tubes and forums are full of content. sales are way down. people do not see membership to a site as a worthwile investment.
i am simply sugesting giving them somthing that they see as a worthwile investment.
I surer would prefer to have somthing solid for $20 per month than just access to a site for $20 that just has a few new clips each month.
it may not work as an option for all sites, but for some i could see it doing huge.
putr it this way, i joined actiongirls site on tial. i downloaded the films in one day so i cancelled. i watched them afterwords. they were ok, but i just thought as i watched them, these surew would be great on a big tv. on a small screen, they sort of were not as good as they could have been.
and there are a lot of sites that i have seen there films and i do often think, these films loose so much by being small crappy clips. it almost makes them worthless. and thats simply becase on a pc they loose the quality.
i have seen stuff that some sites make that are amazing, if they were on big tv's.
even my own stuiff looks a millions times better put direct onto a tv.
in truth some sites should be realy proud of the content they make. its oustanding. its such a shame its put into a small file.
