Let's do the maths. DirecTV $30 a film, cinema price (lets say) $5 per film per person. So you'd need at least six people watching to justify the cost. Six people in a cramped living room watching on a small TV..... That would be pants. No wonder it didn't work. |

The studios were clearly deluded. The price was always going to kill the service. It is prices like that, that encourage piracy. Only an idiot would think that $30 a film would be a success. |
