Since you must have the numbers in front of you, what is the ratio of lifers

Since monthly only started with the 4500 it can't be a huge number.
2xxx, 3xxx and show stopper users paid their money to a company twice
dissolved by bankruptsy. It's clear all of that money is gone.

The problem with your "theory", which you seem to tout monthly, is:

1) You are TOTALLY clueless about Replay revue.
2) This becomes irrelevent because you are also TOTALLY clueless about
Replay expenses.

3) You seem to think legacy (Showstopper, 2K, 3K) units are some
albatross hanging on Replay. Given that there is nothing but guide
support, which is required for ALL units, I find this doubtful. As to
all the "legacy" money being gone, DNNA probably sells more 5Ks in a
given 6mo period than all the legacy units put together.

4) Replay did not go bankrupt. Sonic Blue bought them.
5) DNNA yearly figures show Replay has been in the black since the
initial takeover costs were taken care of.

Dunno, maybe Tony has an idea. There sure are not many monthlies here
if that is any indication. It doesn't seem like the idea was popular.

Goodness. With that type of financial analysis (because of unrelated X, Y
must be true), how could you be wrong?

So, back to the original question, how many subscribers are there in each
bin?

That's a little different then what you implied earlier
"The problem is there are not enough monthlies. It is mostly lifers who
represent a liability without a revenue stream."

So what's the ratio?
By the way, I'm both.

In a poll on AVS, I believe 70% were life and 77% owned more than 1
Replay. But this is a more select group than average. You can be sure
those boxcars full of 55XX they've sold in the last year or 2 are to
more mainstream users.

I'm sure the real numbers are buried somewhere in the annual report
but I don't care enough to wade through it.
