Louis C.K.’s Downloadable Comedy Special Earning Big Bucks | Vulture
He took to his website to write,
“12 hours [after the special’s noon launch on Dec. 10], we had over 50,000 purchases and had earned $250,000, breaking even on the cost of production and website. As of Today, we’ve sold over 110,000 copies for a total of over $500,000. Minus some money for PayPal charges etc, I have a profit around $200,000 (after taxes $75.58). This is less than I would have been paid by a large company to simply perform the show and let them sell it to you, but they would have charged you about $20 for the video.”
I think this proves that good content rises to the top and despite the availability of pirating, people will pay for value.
Heyyyy, that’s awesome.
Can’t wait to download and watch it!
