Article says they paid about 465 million to make Lotr season 1 In 2020, they had 150 million paid subscribers to prime It was about $15 to sub That means subscriptions alone generated 2.25 billion as a whole they net 33 billion based on article below Oh but I am sure they needed to raise more money because the show cost too much to make!

Norman_Smiley 02/18/22 3:42:46 PM #56:	InfinityMonster posted... It's likely to pay for the huge cost of the LotR show. The shipping barely costs them anything anymore since everything is local, and why Prime Video alone is like $9-$10/month with no option for just the shipping benefit. Lol!

The price increase will net them far beyond that; and they were gonna make new programming either way to not bleed revenue to Netflix. <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:962762569] in Umm, so wh...
