It's Good to be Joss Whedon

Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

I was browsing through my Amazon recommendations when I saw the Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog DVD.  It's being sold for $10.49 and it's No. 21 in Amazon's Movies & TV. 

Number 21 out of all the DVDs Amazon sells. 

Within the Movies & TV category, it is No. 1 in Musicals & Performing Arts, No. 1 in Action & Adventure/ Superheroes, and No. 1 in SciFi/ Comedy.

As you know, Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog started out as a free webisode online.  What's whacky is that it is STILL available on the net FOR FREE.

WOW.  Go Joss Whedon.

Welcome to the New Economy, where banks give out bailout money as bonuses, houses in Detroit sell for a dollar, and free webisodes sell like hotcakes for $10.49.

So there you have it folks.  There's your answer to the billion dollar question of how to monetize your web videos...
1) release your videos on line for free ... 2) then make sure to call yourself Joss Whedon...
