Those are good arguments SirMoby, but I have some uncertainties about them.
I'm not sure more broadband necessarily means more revenue, altho I'm willing to be persuaded.
I've read a few sources, altho I don't have links handy, that suggests that the number of new western surfers (by that I mean US, Ca, UK, Western Europe, and Austrailia) is leveling off dramatically. I'd have to do some searching to find them again, so I may have misunderstood the articles.
Worldwide, some 5 billion people can't participate easily in our billing systems, so non western surfers are just a drain on the servers at this point. When they can charge things on credit cards, I can't see any but the richest of them paying $40 a month for paysite memberships.
If revenues are increasing, why aren't sponsors increasing? This is the question that I'm really thinking about.
There should be more sponsors. There seem to be fewer.
