Since were at the end of the 3rd quarter, I did a cost analysis of
what Pitchblue has cost us.
To date our company has spent $8,429.12 for the honor of having our
content delivered to us by Pitchblue. I'm wondering, how I recoup
this expense?
I suspect that a lot of facilities/stations are in the same boat as we
are, if the expenses were tallied and calculated. I also suspect
their business plan depends on the generosity and cooperation of
stations to offset their costs.
I don't see the SBE being a player in the resolution. But I do think
if GMs and CFOs all knew how much this was costing their station, then
enough pressure could be placed on GDMX/Pitchblue either for
compensation or to get service people in place to address the problems
properly.
