Axios claimed 150,000 subscriptions but only 10,000 users per day.

I’m guessing quite a few of the 150k subscribers got a free month, and hadn’t signed up to pay the monthly fee with only a few days left in the month.

Now the 10k that were watching - the same 10k throughout the day or were they different?

How many of those 150k got a free month?

Never saw anything mentioned about a 'free' month.
Article said '150,000 paying subscribers'.

Quite a few streaming services have a free month. You have to give your credit card, so you’re required to cancel if you don’t want to be charged for the next month.

Now I can see some executive claiming that “we’ve got 150k paying subscribers” even if most of them got a free month.

I’m guessing that’s what happened...I’m not sure though.
