Comment on Not a Bubble... At All (Instagram vs. Lucasfilm)

Comments

How many people, right now, are

A) using Instagram?

B) watching a Lucasarts film?

Edit: The point is value isn't always generated from a price tag. User timeshare has it's own value for advertising companies.

How many people this year will pay to use Instagram?

How many people this year will pay to see or use something that Lucasarts made?

How many people this year will pay to use Facebook?

Just because it doesn't have a price tag doesn't mean it can't generate revenue, silly.
