So my question (and hypothesis really because I think it will), will WWE Network kill off streaming/torrent sites? I think it will because the cost is so low, the hassle is supposedly low, and the utility is massive. Plus 10 dollars isn't that much at all considering cable bills are 70+ dollars. I mean, I could torrent old shows if I want, but that's a hassle to download and seed. With the WWE Network, you essentially get every PPV for just 10 bucks, oh, and a bunch of other really cool shit. This is all my speculation of course, but it makes economic sense to me. In other words, the actual market of people who buy PPVs is a sub group of wrestling fans with inelastic demand for the PPV due to their income. So the people who buy PPVs are people to which 20, 40, 70 dollars is all the same to them. People who have normal income won't buy a PPV if it's 20 dollars even because 20 is still greater than 0. That's why PPVs are priced so high (this does actually make sense). It's no secret that we (IWC) torrent/stream PPVs.
