I wonder if a discussion has ever been had within the offices about releasing a value proposition player.
With just a player people could rent and stream from the store or (if full streaming is not an option) it could just have a 128/256gb nvme drive to hold just the 1 movie at a time then delete after viewing is finished. It could be the size of an ATV or nvidia shield.
People would pay for the ease of use and interface alone. I wonder how much money it would make them. Plus if they kept it up to date/relevant i.e Dolby vision the likes of AVSFORUMS and AVFORUMS users would likely be all over it as a product.
Alternatively, license your front end to someone like nvidia or Zidoo for another revenue stream?
I always worry that there will come a day when they hit troubled times again but next time they may not rise from the ashes so surely more revenue and more avenues would secure the business more?
Just thinking out loud really.
