Most of us on the micros don't have content which would be in any sort of competition with 'hot' Olympics images.
I sell a proportionate or better number of editorials, but not 'hot' news, so I'm sure I didn't lose out directly.
But iS credit sales have been on the down and down since they introduced subs.
I was clearly a much better photographer in 2011. Yet again, 9 of my last 20 credit sales were editorial files uploaded in 2011.
Before anyone rushes out to shoot editorials, I'm very specific about that year. The many I uploaded after that are much less successful there as credit sales.
