Louis CK inspires Jim Gaffigan to sell comedy special for $5 online
Louis CK paid like $30k to setup his site for streaming his special. Gaffigan will probably pay some similarly absurd amount.<p>What HNer is going to setup the simple solution for all the comedians that want to copy Louis CK but don't want to figure it out and spend $30k?<p>Transcoding + S3 + Stripe + Reporting dashboard + handholding with a flat 5%-20% fee or something.<p>It could even be an iTunes-like competitor. Web-based, video content, DRM-free. Enter your credit card once and you can easily buy all the different specials. Maybe the price tag would be a good angle: justfive.com, afiver.com, etc. Then again maybe they'd want it to be purely white label.<p>Would be cool if the next guy said: "Alright, I saw what Louis CK and Gaffigan did. I'm going to put my new special up on justfive.com"<p>Someone do it!
