Oh, I'm sure they have those stats. And, if your service just raked in money from monthly fees without ads, it would only take a tiny amount of division and multiplication to figure out how much revenue a highly-watched show is likely supporting.

But we're talking about people who graduated with MBAs, here. Not people with real degrees. Not people with functioning brains.

Unless a VP can point to an actual dollars-accrued-per-click number (and suitably screech like the chimp in a suit that he is), the view numbers alone aren't going to matter.
