$900,000-$1,080,000now looking at those numbers...that's one hell of a profit not even including how many content IDs other players may have
What you're not understanding is the total player base has dropped drastically. They're making a lot less money than past years. It's a business like any other. If the business is making less and less every year changes have to be made.
