With the exception of YouTube, advertising does not leave enough money on the table to satisfy content owners and turn a profit.

Best, George Like all dead pool W20 companies, this one finally figured out that advertising alone does not suffice. With the exception of YouTube, advertising does not leave enough money on the table to satisfy content owners and turn a profit.

Unfortunately, SpiralFrog was probably counting on achieving YouTube type audience numbers and folded when reality set in. The death toll will keep rising.

Best,
George
