All

I don’t know about anything else but I’d bet the livestream made them money. Maybe not a lot but I doubt they were putting up that broadcast for the past 10 years or whatever it’s been purely for the love of the sport while they actively lost money. They saw an opportunity to make more and jumped at it, I get it but I’m certainly not going to support it. Funny thing is I’m sure quite a few people would happily pay 5-10 dollars just to watch Loretta’s for the week but nope, they had to package it with less...

Revenues have risen more than costs.

Check Flo Sports for the highlights.

I liked watching it on and off all week when it was on Youtube. 0 chance I am paying $40 for it. I also am not that heavily invested in amateur mx at this point, so not all that big of deal to just not watch. Funny how Flo is $40 a month (much more than any high end streaming service that I know of and those have significantly more content and their own shows/movies) It's not even about the $40 as much as just how ridiculously greedy they continue to be.

As others have said, total greedy money grab by MX Sports. When you hear the actual cost of the ranch, there’s no way it’s sustainable at those prices. The luster is gone, with SMX Next, combines, even Canadian Nationals proving a more valuable experience for the next generation of pros. It’ll die off like the Golden State Series back in the day. I wouldn’t pay a dollar to these greedy bastards, and I’m probably not alone in those sentiments.

I'm not paying it. I'll watch mattyb and others videos. I hope others feel the same way so they dont make any money

Data point for them: I watched a significant number of races last year, I will watch zero this year. I’ll be interested in their viewership and how it translates to revenue vs. youtube and ads.

GOOD GOD

It’s well beyond the point of a business making money, which I’ve got zero issues with. It’s straight greed. Does DC and mx sports really need all the $ from what should be a $10 fee to pump the sewage out of my rv? It’s all for their love of the sport though right? We did it last year, got the souvenir bib on the shop wall, won’t go back. It won’t stop until people stop feeding the beast.

Less exposure for the little guys equals less sponsorship dollars. So they're either incredibly stupid or all this talk about 'growing the sport' is BS. Looks alot more like growing personal bank accounts than growing the sport to me. How does less exposure grow anything?
