As for me personally, our numbers have gone down pretty dramatically after January, like a switch was turned off. With the new pay reduction, I'm all ready to turn my titles to pay-only...
...and then on March 2nd our numbers spiked big time on Terrortory 2. (and slightly on the other movies)
It's going to lead to my best month since December, which leaves me with the question...should I leave one of my movies up just to see what happens? And which one?
The obvious seems to be Terrortory 2, but I have to ask myself...how many of these people who are streaming it for free would have paid $2 to rent it?
What if the graph KEEPS going up? I'm not sure what's driving it all of a sudden--we got a good review at the end of February, which triggered a small bump, but that was weeks ago--so I don't know what to expect.
It's a tough call, and I have to make it soon.

Sudden thought: What if, instead of premiering my next flick for free on Amazon Prime, I went ahead and launched it on Amazon only, pay only? Would be an interesting experience, but could fail mightily.
If I put it up for pay at first(figuring I'd make it free later), and it doesn't do well, and then I make it free, it may have fallen too far on the charts to ever get back to the top.
But if I do this next flick, it may be the perfect film to try it on, being SUPER no-budget.

I don't agree with some of what he says, but what do I know? I'm a dinosaur. But either way I'm interested to watch and see what he comes up with.
