At this point, I'd have to say that's exactly what this is. I feel like a lot of Compound Media's remaining revenue stream is funded by people who have been on recurring billing and either forget to cancel or don't bother to review statements. I highly doubt any of the other shows are bringing in new subs so, what are people paying for now?
Don’t cheat and look these people up.
Do you know who Jamie Dixon is? Steve Conti? Bill Schulz?
You don’t. Now try finding people who know who they are AND would pay for their show.
It’s not even like people sub for Ant and then the other shows are extras. They don’t watch them at all. In 2018 when the Compound views leaked Anthony was pulling in 2000 views an episode while the side shows were pulling in less than 500.
Compound Media could be fucking 2$ a month and no one would pay for it. It is the shittiest investment i’ve ever seen. You get an app that doesn’t work, one show that’s unwatchable and half of the time unlistenable, with guests you’ve never heard of, the same content that was done 10 years ago, and better, on O&A.
Think about how deep this scam goes. The cheapest subscription is the year long plan. You sub for one year and cancel. The second year you get charged and go through all the hoops to make sure it’s actually cancelled. Then the third year rolls around and you’re STILL charged. Thats two fucking years of revenue where the person isn’t even consuming your content. This isn’t even to mention how hard it is to unsubscribe from them -
YOU HAVE TO EMAIL EROCK. And then he asks you a thousand questions: “Why are you unsubbing? What can we do? Are there other options?” And even this is 50/50 on getting your sub cancelled.
SXM just got hit with a huge lawsuit in New York because of this. It is only a matter of time before Nanas scam is blown out in the open because it is fucking egregious.
