Anyone have an idea on the number of MLS Shootout subscribers this year - or any year? Is the number going up. down, flat? I checked MLSnet but didn't find anything.
Just wondering whether Shootout subscriptions are increasing while attendance is flat this year.
Or - could shootout subscriptions be used as a market research tool to indicate areas with a high interest in MLS.

All I know is that this is my first year subscribing to MLS SHOOTOUT and I'm so satisfied with it, that I'll subscribe to it again Next season. :D
We should put up a POLL with this Question, to see how many, in BIGSOCCER, are subscribers this season.

MLS generally sells about 10000 Shootout subscriptions at $49. Proceeds are split 50/50 with the pay-TV carriers. That means MLS gets around $250000 each season from Shootout.
