Well, I mean, it was exciting to see the activity on the net. And I think to some extent that’s an endorsement of the basic thesis that we have about subscription as a great model for connecting consumers around the world with games and gaming experiences.
The great thing about video games, movies, and music is that there are options for everyone. It is true that subscription models are currently gaining ground, but they do not rule out the rest.
