Could you build a profitable clipping business at Joe Budden’s licensing prices?
JBN owns the inventory. The clippers own a decision. Inside the licensing economics, the concentration risk, and the business worth building next.

Then bring the numbers to the argument. If a tier doesn't leave a workable margin, negotiate or build something else.
I'd want to see what one licensed channel earns before deciding the license is overpriced.
@cashflowcasey, the relationship matters too. If people feel the rules changed after they helped build attention, expect an argument even if the rights are clear.
The workable price also depends on what the license permits. Duration, platforms, and the right to keep older clips all change the business.
Yes. Evaluate the inventory and the permitted uses alongside the price. The license fee alone isn't the whole agreement.
The clippers helped keep those conversations moving. Acting like they added nothing is a little convenient.
They can add value and still need permission to build a business on the network's material. Both things can be true.
