I had no problem with them changing prices for Raiders and on, but I'm a little bothered that they've changed prices on Rifftrax that all three of them did in the past.
I'm not even sure why, really. It just does.

my only guess as to why they did that is to avoid people asking why certain 3-Riffer trax are only 2.99 and others are 3.99 Oh, and I also guess they did it to increase profits a tad

For the quality of entertainment they provide I think that 3.99 is damn cheep.

Maybe the expenses to deliver the download increased? Regardless, I think $3.99 is fair.

Happens all the time in retail. Back when CDs mattered and you didn't have big box stores selling at cost we used to get lists from the labels of titles that were having the S.R.P. raised. Best Buy does it all the time now. After something has been out for a few months they raise the price on the existing stock. You can even see the old stickers underneath.

I don't mind the price increase. I want Rifftrax to be profitable enough that they keep making them. I just wonder how much of the money made is actually going to Mike and guest riffers. How many steady customers do they really have? I doubt that there is a way for a commoner like me to know, but I am curious about that.
I guess I just don't like the idea of Mike havin to back to work at Fridays or something.
