Yeah, I made this instance. I intended retrolemmy to be a place welcoming for all things Retro, so go right ahead! I'd subscribe in a heartbeat!

If you need help, let me know.

In my country it is not expected to tip. Not in restaurants and not in delivery. Just pay your fucking employees. It's not that hard.

If those 3 billion minutes were watched non-stop 24/7 for the paying subscribers it would make at least $486,111.11 for Netflix assuming the subscribers paid for the cheapest subscription at ~$7. That's still a lot of money, but they also pay for their own upkeep, servers and much more.

I know most people don't have the cheapest subscription, and also that they don't watch 24/7. But it puts into perspective that Netflix doesn't earn that much on one series.

To add: they also make their own shows and productions and they pay to put shows up on their service that are not their own productions. I don't know what a show like suits will cost to be put on Netflix, since they don't produce the show, but I'd imagine that's not cheap. And I guess the writers get a percentage of the money earned on the selling of those rights (depending on the contract they have with the original studio)

And the paying of the writers is in the hands of the studio selling the rights, not Netflix.

You know Netflix doesn't work that way right?

The critical mass of Reddit was many years after the Digg debacle.

It's basically the same game just with modern controller support and HD graphics. It looks better. The 3d FMVs look less dated.

Edit: I had Full Throttle in my head. But mostly the same pretty much applies to Gim Fandango. And they made the tank controls optional. It plays like an actual point and click now.
