Howard: I believe your 56% to content provider... and 25% to WAVX, and 10% to boxmaker, and 9% to someone else is correct. I'd have to search through tons of notes to make absolutely sure...and I'm about to "hit the street"...so it ain't gonna happen now. I think you'd be safe using those figures...but the big issue is that you're comparing WAVX's cut to VISA's cut, when you should be comparing WAVX and it's partners cuts to the cuts of the retail middlemen and retail outlets that now sell movies, music, video games, print publications, etc. etc. Your argument that the cuts of WAVX and its partners will add lots of money to the cost of these products to consumers is totally bogus. WAVX and its partners won't add a penney to the cost to the consumer, and won't take a penney from the profits of the content provider/manufacturer. This is what you really need to answer. Please see my "just previous" post. Regards, Newman.
