No, I am not.


I figured. But that was not the impression you gave me by your statement.

$5 a month or $10 in the case of premium aren't much. People would still prefer a sort of subscription at this point range.

That's relative, for us westerners it's not a lot but for other people it might be. Heck if I'm paying $120 annually for a service that I only want to use a couple times per year I'd rather get myself a ppm plan and use the money saved to take my girlfriend somewhere nice for dinner. Also this ppm plan is just me brainstorming in context of micro payments on LN not me coming up with the most useful way for the general public to consume premium content based on the LN.

I mean this sort of pay-per-minute model makes sense in developing countries where they live off on $2-$3 per day. But if you are targetting that sort of an audience you won't be getting anything out of it.

What exactly is that even supposed to mean? What is it that we're supposed to get out of our audience? I don't think we're trying to get anything out of anyone with concepts like these. Isn't that the whole point of LN, making small transactions instant and cheap for everyone across the globe?
