I'd say there is, and it's called Tencent. And my prediction is this year they will take a small stake in EVRH and once that transaction is complete we will be released in China.

I tried watching the World Cup in VR during the summer, and whilst it was a novelty, it soon wore off and I took the headset off after 20 minutes.

I personally don't think VR will lend itself well to football in it's current form. Boxing might work. Big pay per view numbers there. Get these venues signed up for exclusivity on all events imo, not just music! I agree with you of course the profit margins / demand needs to be there but VR could revolutionise the theatre market and transform it into a mainstream entertainment pass time.

Themis I think we are in agreement, as per my 11.27 post.

BA maybe I am being naive in thinking alot of the leg work has already been done to enter those markets and going and filming these big comedy tours of sellout comedians or big theatre events.

We are nursing a big baby here that could turn into a baby the size of the inflatable Donald Trump, so it's not a massive issue for me that they are not diversifying at this stage, but I just wonder whether it is low hanging fruit that they could be taking for themselves relatively easily.

mufc I only judge on pennydealers FB posts. I unfortunately brought in to FB, of which I learnt about from this board and by GUN RNS about assisting with the IPO.

Since the IPO is the issue, in that it has been delayed for over 1 year now, GUN by association is going to reflect negatively by association.

Only danger is pulling resources away from the main baby, music or watering down the MVR brand but could do it as a separate brand within the holding company, and appoint somebody senior from the events industry and build from there. I think it would be well received if this happened but I don't think it will, as SH said they have been approached by many industries but they want to stick to music as they are music people.

Nobody sane would suggest that BA, it is not even close but why not be greedy and grab it all. VR will lend itself to theatre, comedians etc why not get venues signed up and grab it all. They have the tech, they have the deal making capabilities with venues, they are a holding company.

Global theatre market is not insignificant.

The problem is that the Fastbase deal undermines confidence in the board. If they can align themselves with a company that are (and I'm not suggesting that they are!) dodgy in any way or if it appears that they haven't done their due diligence then the repercussions are sizable given that this is an investment company. Can we as shareholders trust them with our money when brokering any future deals?

Exactly! I said this months ago and posters buried their heads, blocking people like pennydealer (who is only posting facts). The same posters then started counting the money from the Fastbase IPO (that has been extended again shock horror).

Re dj market - EVRH should try to buy out TheWaveVR, they seem to be going some interesting projects

*shame

VR will lend itself really well to theatre imo. Same EVRH didn't jump on this.

Thanks Max. Hopefully the beginnings of the exponential curve we are all waiting for...

BA do you know where to look for Twitter follower analytics? Somebody posted up before, I’d be interested to see last few weeks.

Also if anybody has the Go, whether there have been many new reviews since Christmas?

Is clearly a fishing expedition by somebody looking to talk down the sp. As for releasing all the content at this point and not drip feeding, why do some impatient PI's think they know better than this management?

With regards also to not releasing on other platforms, this is clearly a deliberate strategy imo. There is obviously a trade off with Facebook, i.e. a possible scenario - you remain exclusive on Oculus for x amount of months and we will make you front and centre on our $100m ad campaign.

The deals the BOD have made and senior appointments that have come on board recently. Is this not a better demonstration of the BOD competence, and also to the long term trajectory of the company? This is all a long term game of chess, moving the pieces in the right places at the right times. Why do some inpatient PI's think they know better than this management, considering all they have achieved so far is beyond me.

They are trying to stay ahead of the game on all fronts, tech, labels/deals, artists, everything. Just randomly releasing 3 artists per week or whatever it is people are suggesting is not going about things in a right way. Fair enough have an opinion but when you see the same people on Twitter constantly picking holes and thinking they know better than this management team, they are just embarrassing themselves.

And do people think this is good or bad?

Also would somebody be able to post up the analytics please for number of social media followers in the last few weeks. Cheers

What song you are most likely to download on your Oculus Go from Liam Payne’s gig.

1371 responses. Good indication of download numbers? I know it’s not a perfect science as not everybody is on Twitter etc, but close enough?

I sold my Go so I can’t look, but have there been many new reviews of the app since Christmas Day?

Do you mean AM is quoted at what he would sell at LowiePete? I'd be interested to see that quote.

A couple of things I've read recently that have stuck, reading back the last few days on here. One being that broker notes are often not worth the paper they're written on (not sure how true this is).

Another is that Facebook are running Oculus and producing the hardware at a loss, as their aim with VR is eventually a closed eco system, and this is where they will make their money back. If any of that is true, you would think Facebook are nailed on to be trying to buy MVR. I didn't think the EVRH BOD would sell so early, but I'm beginning to change my mind.

If talks are current / on-going with Facebook, it would explain a few things -
The recent appointment of the M&A guy
Not being released on any other platforms (and lack of updates regarding these)
No Director buys.(yes they have options, which might explain this)

It would probably explain a few other things if you keep digging. We launched with the Go, they are advertising us front and centre, it's in broad daylight how close they are working with each other.

Also, how do we know they are not in a closed period and can't buy? All the talk of buyouts, that would certainly preclude them if we are in talks.

Nobody any views on the projections in this document? I know it's 120 pages but some interesting info in there. Daily sp talk much more interesting I suppose...

On the talk of Directors buying, do they not all have options at various prices? Would this not be a good enough reason to not buy?

I wonder what happened to LiveNation’s 5 year agreement with NextVR for concerts. Looks like NextVR did the deals with the wrong people in order to tie up the Music VR space.

Is anybody able to cross reference whether their projections for 2017 were accurate?
