This is an excerpt from the Federal judgements link you posted on another thread.
46 Mr Smith also says this:Once a client is lost to a competitor, it does not usually re-consider its media intelligence arrangements for at least one or two years. Further, in order to win back a client lost to a competitor, in my experience it is almost always necessary to offer the client a similar level of service at a lower price than Isentia previously charged that client. Consequently, if Isentia were to lose clients to Meltwater (or Streem) during the period between now and the determination of this proceeding, because it was not able to compete on price due to higher copyright costs, I would expect the impact of those lost clients on Isentia’s revenue to last well beyond the date on which the proceeding were determined, even if parity of copyright pricing was achieved on that date.
This obviously sucks but lower copyright costs would certainly help. (My comment)
