I'm probably batting 300.
I'm in the Hall of Fame.
So 60% of the time I'm screwed.
But people with taste that know this business, that know kind of what an audience, a mass audience likes is hard.
So if you have taste and you're seeing a lot of programming, you can say there's talent there that actually has value.
So you're Dwayne Johnson.
Let's just take it out.
Let's just say my conclusion's right.
And you take it out to its farthest limit where Dwayne Johnson has a development team and they're looking for stuff and they're picking it and they're putting it on their service.
For Dwayne, and Dwayne's paying that person, I don't know if they're paying him a million dollars or $10,000 because the thing costs nothing.
There's a value proposition there.
