Watch the video carefully and you can see the possible consequences of the constant channel-switching Big Grin

I wonder if this whole focus on the american girls thing is making a profit for them.

I wouldn't say all are subpar theres been good and bad, but its been a huge change at Studio66tv (elite) and I guess its all test and trial for the moment, new batch of girls, the stream switching, the webshow (@home), more american girls appearing on the night shows every month. I'm sure profits are coming in otherwise they would have stopped bringing the american girls in and starting the webshow. On the other hand, Jamie could be branching out in the U.S hence the vast amount of U.S girls coming over her to gain valuable experience. Only Jamie knows Smile but I guess all we can do is enjoy what they offer on our screens Smile

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

There does seem to be a method to the madness of the stream switching. I've noticed that some girls (most notably the old guard of Dionne, Caty and Ashley) are always either option 1 or 2. So when they go on a break, the girl taking over will be option 1 for a short time. Then let's say the option 4 girl has her break next. Instead of putting (for example Dionne) on option 4, she'll go straight back to option 1, and the other girl will be shunted from 1 to 4. So it's not done to piss us off, even though that's inevitably an effect of it. It's more a case of keeping the option number the same for the girls.
The problem comes when the other girls keep getting switched from one to another. I can speak from experience on this, as they switched the stream once when I was actually in the middle of a call to Sammi-Jo. The call itself wasn't interrupted, but it was a pain in the arse having to open another window on my computer to see her again. Angry

I´m sorry, but I have my doubts about this excuse, especially when I´m watching some of my nightshow-recordings. There were also constant channel-switching when all the girls were speaking on the phone. Sorry, the explanation won´t hold water... Smile

Jamie certainly does like us posting cap & video's of the shows. He one of the few bosses that understands that it's free advertising for him. But at the end of the day, this is a business, and they are out to make money. So he's not going to compromise on that, just to keep us happy.

"Free advertising?" Yes, maybe but even that only to a certain point. After that it could be also considered as a competition to the pics & videos Elite is trying to sell on their own website. I like Elite-TV for a variety of reasons and it´s the only liveshow-channel I´m still interested in. Sometimes they can do so well with fantastic girls, great shows, perfect sets, excellent camerawork & lighting and so on. That doesn´t mean I like everything they do and what really annoys me (big time!!!) are their ...AngryAngryAngry:... oversized onscreen-graphics on the right or left side of the screen. Yes, it´s a business, but they have to keep the customers in mind and I´m sure a lot of them are viewing/calling via TV.

Some examples:

Sometimes I think that the person(s) in charge must have something against the viewers via TV or is there a understandable reason why they cover almost 50% of the screen with this -sorry- crap? Maybe they make a fortune with all the advertisements... I don´t know...

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

Well Quiquem's, I did say it was an excuse. (LOL). We can all see the holes & flaws in his argument. But just try telling that to him. He just gets all defensive on you, and say's your knit picking.

We can all see with our own eye's just how much of a mess their current production is. We can only hope they eventually see it for themselves. I'm just relieved they dropped the title "Elite", as they certainly are not any longer.

Only time will tell, if they ever get back to the production values that got them the customers in the first place. It's a case of watch this space.

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

Then they must be truly hard up for money because I don't remember it ever being this bad. Channel swapping along with over the top encryption strengthens the "stop recording our shows" argument. And if it's down to money, RLC must be making huge bank then(phone scams and all) as they have the ideal record/capping setup. 7 hours, 1 girl 1 channel, easypeasy to record.

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

Well, first off, let me just say that I get as pissed off as the rest of you, in regards to the constant channel switching. Sad And yes, Jamie is aware of exactly how we feel about it, as I have told him on several occasions. His excuse for doing this, was that if a particular babe is struggling to get calls on one channel, they will switch her to another one.

But considering the phone numbers change for each channel. Which means the babes have to play musical phones as well, everytime they switch. You could end up cutting someone off in the middle of a call, because that babe no longer has that phone. To me, this will cause more people to get pissed off, and in the end, cut down on their profits.

Jamie certainly does like us posting cap & video's of the shows. He's one of the few bosses that understands that it's free advertising for him. But at the end of the day, this is a business, and they are out to make money. So he's not going to compromise on that, just to keep us happy.

All the best

Ace.

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

If its just aimed at cappers and videomakers we should feel privilege but how many are just wanting to phone there favourite girl then have to go search for them on one of the 3 channels/streams that are left after swapping.

Switching will not just piss one group of people off it will piss off there customers as well.

On TV they have a great box showing right now a constant looped advert for videos to your mobile and yep its annoying viewing Confused

Btw i was going to mention after 3am in the morning while 1 or 2 girls are on its easier to record but then remembered leaving it recording one night and ended up where they swapped the channel so getting 50 minutes of adverts instead, ah now i remember why i stopped recording there shows Big Grin

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

Well, long ago Jamie told me he appreciated the caps and videos, maybe has changed his mind, who knows.Smile

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

I guess it doesn´t make much sense, but maybe Elite´s/whatever (I don´t like the new name Big Grin ) constant channel-switching is just a more polite way to say: "Stop recording our liveshows and sharing them over the internet". The people sharing the videos give up one after another, because it´s simply not worth the effort anymore, so they don´t even have to play the "copyright-holder-card" and maybe lose much more "sympathy-points"...

Re: Studio 66 - General Discussion

Tonight has a new girl starting at Elite called Harri, now i have no facts but i suspect it is this girl [hidden link - please register] she tweeted yesterday that she was so happy she got the job (not saying what job) but been talking a lot with Jessy Jensen today on twitter and seem to know each other well.

If i am wrong apologies to both girls.

But good luck on your first shift for Elite Harri Smile
