Paid Members Tommy! Posted June 19, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2019 How much have we got cheap or free over here for years, and some people still bitch when someone asks for money to watch a show from a company treated like the second coming. "AEW is amazing, it's 6 stars, it's.... £8.99! Fuck that" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Mustang Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Live in the US. Will be on holiday in the UK next weekend...it’s only $8.99 but still! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seratonin Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 £8.99 to watch a show when I can stream for free the day after on other sites. Hmm... 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm... 🤔 Quote It's getting hard anticipating the next show. I was impressed with their last show but it's time WWE had a competitor and I really hope AEW is it. Hope the masses appreciate the true art behind wrestling and show up to support to provide AEW some degree of longevity. If no one appreciates, they're gonna start taking shortcuts for rating/buys which will degrade the product. Also quoted your last post in the Double Or Nothing thread Didn’t take you long..

I no longer pay for WWE Network and will happily find alternative ways to watch there stuff because I’m sick of how that company treats people and I don’t want to give them any more of my hard earned cash.

People need to appreciate it, but that's other people. He deserves to have it for free because he's special and already appreciates it as an art form.

Again, some people would like to support the company/other companies but can not afford it. You can watch a stream of something and still give a shit and care. It isn’t as black and white as you say.

I’ve done it with films I couldn’t find elsewhere. I’ve justified it by well I pay for Netflix/Sky/Amazon Prime/Cineworld Unlimited so I’ve paid for it somewhere. But then I still buy films on Blu Ray if I really like something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can’t afford to pay for AEW right now, and stream it but then become more financially stable in the future and buy, let’s say, a t shirt to support them, what’s the difference between what you’ve said about films. Still “not cool?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrodyGraham Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 So if this and Fight for the Fallen stream for the same price, we still pay less than the Americans did for Double or Nothing. We're by no means getting screwed on this and anyone intimating otherwise is talking bollocks quite frankly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted June 19, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2019 I'll not be happy until Jericho and Moxley are working a match in my back garden. Then I'd have to fit it in between Classic Eastenders and wanking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still “not cool?” There’s a difference, huge difference between not being able to afford it, and not wanting to pay for it. If you can afford it comfortably but know you can find it for free tomorrow, you should feel a bit of guilt. But I’m pretty sure any company would rather it would be seen in the hope it leads to support in the future when you can support. I mean, in the UK via WWE we got PPV’s for free or with Sky Sports. But I never bought one on Sky Sports PPV. But was happy to pay for the network when it launched. The PPV’s I didn’t pay for, I either went to a pub, chipped a few quid in or some beers to someone I knew who was buying it or, read the results and bought it on DVD when Silvervision released it. £15 to watch it live or £15 to have it on DVD a bit later. As a student, that’s what I had to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s kind of going price. In the UK, £15-£20 depending on the event. They tend to stick at pricing they think will get the most sales. The only screwing here really is something is being sold as free in the US and we’re payinf for. But, it’s been the other way for us for years so I completely get and understand your point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
