>>60762386>Cover themselves rented a subway wall and plastered the whole thing with sub numbers Sub numbers look impressive because they're big, and get idiots like you clapping their hands. It's perfect advertisement material, but not that interesting when it comes to measuring actual outreach.
>gave a statement about not looking a CCV What they meant by that is that they look at the whole picture. If a talent sells merch out the ass, has thousands of members and gets juicy SCs every stream, it obviously doesn't matter what the CCV is in this context. We don't have those internal numbers of course, which is why /#/ looks at the numbers we actually do have: Vod views, SCs and average CCV.
>you keep saying subs don't matter No, subs do matter, but mostly as a function to get more eyes on your stream and for advertisement purposes. (Like in your pic.)
>who will pacifically support and spend money on THAT idolNo, there are plenty of channels with literally millions of subs but with nobody watching. Even if you're subbed to a channel, if you never watch it, it will stop being recommended for you. The sub count stays, but that sub is effectively worthless because it never translates into views.
>too influenced by borrowed viewers from other fanbases, specific topic interest, time zones and people having jobsWhich is why /#/ also tries to analyze the reasons and extrapolate. There's a reason terms like "raidbaby" exists. But like I said, vod views also matter, it's just harder to compare since stream lengths vary and so does content. (Obviously a 3 minute song will get more views than a 5 hour gaming stream.)
CCV is basically shorthand for how many people of the intended target audience bothers showing up for a stream. It's makes for easy comparisons of who has eyes on them.
