And the industry will hide behind it's the economy... Put me in the minority that says 50 Cent P4's, Tri's are pushing the whales out of the game. I have no evidence of course to substantiate this but the average Joe will spend the same amount on a P4 at 1.00 or .50 but has substansially more coverage at .50 cents thus diluting payouts.
