You tell him not to be offended, then give the exact same offense? Bad boy!
Are you a major studio, that you can buy in huge lots of AAA modelers, artists, riggers and what not in bulk, paying them to output content on your schedule, and then turn that into something that sells in large enough quantity that you recoup your Investment? You are not an Enterprise customer buying huge orders of computers so you get huge discounts on price and the discounts of having so many experts in one place, where they do on the job training, and all the other things every other business does, including hiring from out of school talent so they can reduce their costs.
You are not buying a commodity product from the music industry, that amortizes the costs of doing business, you are buying artistic visions, ingenuity, cutting edge ideas and techniques, producers time and interests in continuing the projects, their promise of support even if you don’t want it.
My question to you is, if you keep telling everyone you aren’t going to buy their product, why are they going to listen to you?
