Something else that was also mentioned, as there were several discussions here recently on these things.
Subscription numbers are above 3.5 million, well above Sony's 700,000. So those charts that were being shared around are super misleading. :)

Not surprising taking into account it is the best way to get yearly Fifa / Madden / sports games lol
That was known from the start when you consider Xbox Game Pass last known numbers. They fibbed just a tad for that chart.
So less than 5 million, that's not good at all.
- Players have spent over 150 million hours in game since launch
I hate absolutely USELESS stats like this. They have no purpose and give no information at all apart from "big numbers".
Jesus, five minutes in and there's a comment attacking him, saying he's lying about Anthem and that it's a success.

It was one of the most ridiculous 'facts' ive ever seen on here. The thread was hilarious with people falling over themselves to ignore basic common sense.
This should answer your question.
It is used when talking about a publicly traded company's financials.
Hopefully both can co-exist.
It's different for other pubs btw. Sony for example only has a 37% digital ratio.
Falling over what? A revenue chart where PSNow used to cost $20 a month, $45 for 3 mo this and roughly $120+ a year. While EA access is $35 a year?
People were falling for not reading apparently
Thank you. Don't use Twitter so that was very much unknown to me.
It's to indicate the ticker symbol for the stock market.
When people say $MSFT they genuinely talk about Microsoft stock or the company in financial related matter.
When People say M$ they just want to mock Microsoft.
Great news for EA today I would say. I'm so happy. If their after market gains hold to the morning I'll make more money in 1 day trading their stock than I've spent on video games in 5 years.
Knowing a lot about video games can truly get you paid.

It was made in November of last year with the only data used before the price drop in PSNow, and how do we know it was a complete fallacy?
Bug some analysts said that PlayStation Now is the biggest service by a wide margin...
I really doubt that info, because xbox gamepass and ea acess have more subs. I dont Know anyone that subs psnow, but i know a lot that subs gamepass and ea acess.
Math
The period covered in the graph was well after the price cut.
How do things like sales factor into these sorts of numbers. I know that if I buy a game at launch 99% of the time I'm buying it physical. If the game is six months old and on sale for $20 I'm far more likely to get it digitally as I dont pay attention to sales happening in retail stores.
You mean the 5 days it was only on sale at starting last September? The price cut was for 5 days you could only get it at for $9.99 and $99 a year
If you've been monitoring digital growth, you'll know its rising fast, it'll be 60% next year imo
No.
The new and cheaper $99 yearly subscription plan was introduced in December 2015.
The covered period of that Superdata chart was July - September 2018.
Of course you can also get the yearly subscription occasionally on sale for just $80 or $60, but that is not even the point.
PS Now has 700k subscriber as of March 2019 with 40% YoY growth.
So in March 2018 the service was at 500k.
Between July and September 2018? 550k - 600k
Monthly ASP for the services? $9 - $14
Total revenue of $15 to $30 million
Superdata estimate was 142 million

PSNow subscription started in 2015 and did not drop till last year. Google again
You spotted yet another promo, it's never been $99 regular till just lately and now we have been getting fire sales of $79 and even $59 from amazon
You're really defending that shit chart? You think EA got 3m subs in less then a year?
I still would like to know where it says sub numbers in that chart and I get no answer
I think most customers are still in the Western world. The average internet speed in those nations is good enough to download a game within a couple of hours.

And in the very early days, you had to pay $5 for a few hours on a single titel
Maybe you should google again?
The regular MSRP is $99 yearly, $45 three months and $20 one month for years now.
This is quite off-topic tho.
