Default Live feed idea

Ok so channel 5 are so desperate to save money and spend where it's needed etc so here's my thought. Now personally I don't give a **** about the effin live feed but this is what they could do for all the live feed fans.

Paid subscription £9.99 per series
If 100,000 of the viewers did this they have made £999,000 pounds (assuming my maths is correct) and going with this I assume that would be more than enough to set up an online live feed

Thoughts?
Don't hate on me! Lol

It has been mentioned before on the forum, and on paper it indeed sounds like an amazing idea.

But, will that many people really subscribe? Only the "hardcore BB" fans would subscribe, and there's seemingly less of us every year.

So on saying that, I don't think that many people would keep paying for it, realistically.

Of course, there's god knows how many that whine and bitch about live feed every year but the majority wouldn't go near it with a barge pole if they knew they had to pay.

Ah don't worry about it. I don't think anything similar has been posted for a while anyway.

I'd like to see the stats from Channel 4's online live feed that they did for the last series, especially after they gave away 1,000 free passes.

It may well have worked for Channel 4's last series but that was probably because nobody ever thought the show was going to return again and the fact it was a one off.

If it was a continuous thing on channel 5, less and less people would pay, plus there's less viewers on channel 5 than on C4. I predict it would work to begin with but the novelty would wear off.

Live Feed idea: late night/early morning live feed.

I'd definitely pay £10 for 24/7 live feed, although it would no doubt be pirated and streamed somewhere else for free.
