Part Three of the Tim Harrison interview
The final segment of a three part interview with Tim Harrison, Head of Games at Vodafone, is now up at MobileIndustry.biz. The highlights this time lie in his comments on revenue sharing between developers:
“The revenue share that Vodafone operates on is a figure that has come about by us looking at what our contribution to the value chain is, looking at the various functions that we perform within that, and looking at what the publisher or developer does within that value chain… I think that as content providers take on more of the risk and the responsibility, then there’s an argument to have a conversation about the revenue share. But certainly, in terms of Vodafone Live, our proposition is an end to end proposition, whereby we’re responsible for a greater degree of the value chain.”
and quality control for mobile games:
“It’s perhaps a sign of the market’s immaturity that we, as effectively the retailer, amongst our other duties, are having to take responsibility for what should be an internal QA function… At the end of the day, our customers, if they download a bad game off Vodafone Live the first person they look to for redress is Vodafone. It’s not the game publisher.”
