Hmm, my subscription is expiring soon.
I'm a Day 1 subscriber (see how cool that is to say!). My first subscription officially expires on September 3. I am going to renew, there is no question about it. Even for PPVS and NXT alone, this is an amazing deal for this price. But with the first wave of subscriptions expiring and with WWE soon to be announcing subscription numbers again, I wonder what they have planned as big hype for the month of September.

Speaking of the Network, WWE keeps on bragging about a 90% customer satisfaction rate. Has anyone else been given the option to give such feedback? Because I haven't and I watch the Network almost every single day.

That used to be the exact date that mine expired too. But it changed to September 03 for some reason. I would guess I've been given credit for the "free week trial" or something. I really don't know why my expiration date changed. But keep an eye on yours to see if it changes as well. :shrug:

WWE announced the latest WWE Network subscriber count as 700,000. The number is up from the 667,000 subscribers the network had on April 7 (the day after WrestleMania 30). WWE also announced that they plan to take WWE Network worldwide on August 12. The company will also launch the network on several smart televisions and blu-ray players in mid-August.

This is good news for people outside the USA. The WWE Network is a fantastic deal. I highly recommend it to everyone. Hopefully, the international market is big enough to make this profitable and a permanent mainstay.

Reading the report a little more, it seems that the Canadian version of the WWE Network is going to be a little bit different than anyone else. I'm very interested to see what the Canadian posters have to say about this once they get the network in a few more weeks.

Firstly, don't skip the "global expansion" info above.

But I just checked my own account. I remember DL saying he too is a day 1 subscriber and his account expires August 24. I said that mine used to say that but that it was bumped up to September. I had assumed I had a free week trial added onto my account. I just checked my account again and:

The Network isn't as popular as they had hoped in its early life. I would expect that there would be a drop off once the day one subscriptions ends. Though the international world wide launch should ease some of that pain.

If your subscriptions ends, do you have to renew it again for 6 months? Or after a first purchase, can you renew it monthly?

I dunno, though. If you look at the old monthly buyrates (prior to the Network) then they only averaged 200K to 300K buys. It was only WrestleMania that got the really outrageously high buys of 1M. So the fact that they are at 700K just within the USA is kind of impressive, I think.

Currently, you have to sign up for 6 months at a time. However, I read that they are looking at other options and letting people "sample" a month for $19.99 for a 1 month purchase. We'll see how the options change after they do their full release.

From what I understand, the WWE network in Canada is going to be a pay TV channel. Rather than something I can subscribe to on my computer or Ps4. Not only that but I'm pretty sure it's going to be exclusively on Rogers. Which blows because I don't think my city even has Rogers. So I doubt I'll even get it.

That's stupid. I assume the TV company must have paid a pretty penny for WWE to agree to something like that.

So would you have access to the full Network library? Or would you be limited to just the "live schedule" streaming?

I'm guessing there is the live schedule streaming, and an extensive OnDemand library, but I'm guessing it won't be any where near as large as what's available in the app. I don't have much sympathy though, because there are plenty of ways for people outside the US to register a US account. :shrug:

I saw it compared to the HBO model. So I am assuming that means live streaming on TV and VOD streaming. That doesn't sound like a bad deal.

Anyways, I think Canada will still have the app. Rogers is just getting exclusivity on a paid premium channel option.

Apparently, Peru will get the WWE Network on August 12. No idea if it'll be via Android/PS3/Ipad/etc. or if it's like Canada via cable.

Still won't purchase right away until I know its format availability and until we get closer to the Royal Rumble.

I believe WWE stated during their last conference call that the Network will launch worldwide in its current incarnation. Canada was the only country they mentioned as having a different version of the Network. I believe it is web-based for everyone else.

I still think Canada will get a web version. Rogers is just getting exclusivity on a paid channel option.

I don't know. I hope so. I remember the word Exclusive being used.

I read a rumor that Nitro archives will be added to the Network by October. I would love for this to happen.
Offline Profile Quote Post Goto Top
 
CRSHFBRCTN

The RAW archives are almost built up to the point that Nitro premiered. They've announced that the Monday Night Wars documentary series is about to start very soon. My guess is they're going to start adding a handful of episodes of RAW and Nitro each week to correspond with an episode of the MNW show.

It looks like Canada really is only getting it as a paid tv channel.

Are you Canadian CRSH? Isn't that just awful? I don't have cable, so if I were to get the WWE network it'd end up costing me like $60. Pisses me right off lol
