Does it work? It has for standup specials. In a statement published on his website in 2011, C.K. detailed the revenue of Shameless, on which he spent $170,000 of his own money to produce: =E2=80=9C12 hours [after going = on sale], we had ... earned $250,000, breaking even on the cost of production and website =E2=80=A6 I have a profit [of] around $200,000 (after taxes $75.58). This is less than I would have been paid by a large company to simply perform the show ... but they would have charged you about $20 for the video. They would have given you an encrypted and regionally restricted video of limited value, and they would have owned your private information for their own use.=E2=80=9D -- =
