We have considered trying to offer subscriptions, streaming the product on-demand, financing, etc. There does not at this time seem to be a very good option for us to do those things.
Furthermore, unless I am mistaken, you generally don't see things like financing options for a luxury product. They also don't go on sale.
I'm still figuring out what we will be doing in the end, but part of what I want to do is offer everything in 6G and basically have a unified and consistent product offering, instead of a patchwork of products scattered all over the place technology wise confusing our customers as to whether or not we actually do offer the best products on the market.
In case you are willing to share, I wonder, what was the problem with a streaming or subscription model? Would it be more feasible now that streaming technology has grown? (Netflix...) It would be fantastic from a user’s point of view - I would subscribe to LTU5 right now if the option was available, but dropping 1K+ is not easy for most people, even if the product is well worth the money. It would be even more interesting for new users who do not necessarily know whether the product would work for them or not.
With prices going up (for the good reasons you explained) and the economy going down, some alternative solution could be win-win.
