Yes there was a time, (long, long, ago) when I was paying about $100 per video for their stuff.
It was intoxicating.
I remember the producers were invited onto talk shows to talk about their catfighting and their company.
They were making around a million dollars a year back in say, 1988 or so....
Compare that to our modern producers trying to sell clips you can download online for around $25 to $30 and just scraping by.
