Hey I would never be cheering for your business to fail or anything. Good luck there!
I work for a company which I also think the content is worth and people don't pay. And we charge much much less than that.
The problem we identified, though debatable, is that people consider three things:
1. Exclusivity
2. Comparison
3. Alternatives
1. Is this a thing a thing only available here
2. That's not what it seems. People thinks that 15 USD for netflix is ok, but they think that everything that costs 15 USD should be stream content high production with tons of options. So if you give text, the expect cheap or free
3. If I cannot get what is being offered, can I get something about the same for free?
