Are the earnings same as or higher than credit sales?

None for me that I know of.  Of course I haven't opened each and every picture that has sold over the past week or so. 

Have gotten a nice batch of EL's this month so far.  That's always exciting :)

I wonder how engrained the various buyers are. Micro is certainly a growth industry, but really, is Fotolia  going to change the world by offering subs? Are most sub buyers already hanging around SS? Is a fancy new web site going to drag buyers over to SV? Is it all just a bunch of wishful thinking on the part of agencies to prop up sales?

Only one IS sub sale for me so far: a $2.00 medium size yesterday.
I hope there will be many more like this.

On the flip side, I've had a handful of 27c subs at FT.

I've had one subs sale that I know of (it happened last Sunday, a slow day, and on a file that went from 2 to 3 DLs, so it was noticeable that the royalty was very low).

It ended up (2 days later when the sale cleared) being 95 cents for a medium. That's less than many of my recent medium sales, but the actual commission varies depending upon how much the buyer paid for their credits.

IS said in the promo stuff that you'd never make less than 19 cents a credit (as an independent); what they didn't say was that with per image sales you frequently make much more than that, but with subs sales, you'll very often make exactly that. The weekend "lottery" will be the fun part - if and when we get to see that. It could outshine ELs in the extreme cases.
