[ QUOTE ] I've been preaching that economic theory dictates that Party is going to make alot less money per customer over the coming years. You just can't sustain this kind of profit margin in a free market. [/ QUOTE ] Party is a virtual monoploy right? What kind of margins are Microsoft and other monpolies averaging? [/ QUOTE ] Party is not a monopoly. Yes, they have a huge market share, but they don't have control of any particular product or service. There are plenty of sites out there and there will be plenty more, I am sure. |

Money circulates. |

Thats just disgusting. It's criminal to believe they can sustain that kind of profit margain over the next couple years. They will remain number 1 in online gaming, but if other sites pick it up, party will be forced to either reduce rakes or more likely, increase boni in order to sustain their share of the market. It just free market logic. New entrepeneurs will see the money in online gaming and the industry will be saturated with sites. The only way they will be able to stay afloat is to earn x amount of rake which will come from x about of players. The only way they can attract players is by offering the best product/deal. This in turn translates to either lower rake or more boni. It may not happen in the next couple years, but within ten years I predict this will be the case. Party's profit margin will be down by then.

[/ QUOTE ] Virutal monopoly = driven by customers (who buys linux?) Someone posted a link that showed the traffic numbers each site generated. Party was #1 by a huge margin with more traffic then the next 4 or 5 sites combined. With so much market share I think they qualify as a customer driven monopoly. |

At 35% currently, they could lose two thirds of that and still far outperform nearly every other corporation in the world making over 1B in gross revenue. |
