MODERATORS
QA doesn't make money. They're paying me anyhow.
QA prevents them from losing money. Same with IT.
Comments sections prevent them from losing users who like that. Users are money.
Cost of moderation likely higher then lost profits from users who were only being kept on by comment section.
That's the bet they're making.
It's a fairly good bet considering the overwhelming majority of streaming services.
You mean the ones that are all failing right now for being fractured and having no appeal beyond whatever the latest binge is?
Yes I do mean the ones that make far more money and have 10x or more the subscribers that Crunchyroll does. That is correct.
You must be imagining that since the only profitable streaming service I've heard of is Disney and that's not for their streaming service. They're all tanking on investor money.
No I just have access to this new and innovative search engine called google.
