I haven’t had this experience in 20 years. Before CDs came out, I’d buy an album and hold the 12-inch cover in my hand, sitting cross-legged on the floor while I listened to the music, read the liner notes, and looked at the pictures.” People used to have this very tactile, multimedia experience when they bought an album. But with the digitization of music, we’ve lost that special moment. You can think of the app as, finally, that chance to unwrap the box and have a personal, intimate experience again with music. It might be the case that people spend a lot of time with the app when it first comes out [as they did with album covers] and then perhaps they’ll move on to purely enjoying the music after that

According to Roadside Attractions and Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., the sister companies handling the film's concurrent theatrical and VOD releases, the film "Arbitrage" has VOD sales, via the Internet and cable and satellite television, of about $11 million, and is projected to gross as much as $12 million. At the art house, "Arbitrage" has sold more than $7.3 million in tickets and may reach more than $7.5 million.

With those numbers, "Arbitrage" has surpassed what is believed to be the record holder for combined sales for a movie released concurrently in theaters and on VOD, held by 2011's "Margin Call." That film had VOD sales of about $6 million and grossed $5.4 million in theaters.

Unlike box-office sales, which typically are divided 50-50 between the theater owners and the distributors, the VOD split usually gives distributors close to 70%. The amount of VOD proceeds that flows back to a film's creative team and investors is still imprecise.

You're aiming for 0.5M MAU, lets assume a good ARPU of $0.40 given monthly revenues of $200,000.

f your game has a good viral ratio of 0.5, that is, each person invites 0.5 other people, then we can model the equation as 1 / (1 - 0.5) = 2. So for every person we buy, we get 2 kicked out (2 for the price of 1). So, to hit 0.5M MAUs we need to buy approx. 0.5M / 2 = 250,000 users. 

Our cost to acquire a customer (CAC) is probably going to be around $0.50, so the cost to acquire those 250,000 users is $125,000.
