For people that subscribe to the network.
I have had it since around Wrestlemania. I cancelled for one month in about May or June to save a little money, but I have been with it for the whole time otherwise.
PPVs were/are I'm not sure, forty dollars/forty pounds? Many might just buy Mania and Summerslam and not the rest. With the network, you don't pay as much per event but you drip drop the WWE a steady 9.99 a month for the privilege of watching everything they have.
So, I know this is a fairly obvious thought, but have you paid WWE more money since you had the network or less?

I pay more since I used to only purchase Wrestlemania but I use the network a lot. I find it is money well spent.

Oh yeah, definitely. Haven't even had the setup to be able to buy PPV since the end of 2009.

I shell out far less than I would have on DVDs. Haven't bought one in forever. As far as PPVs, I'd only order the big ones so even there a lot less.

I didn't order PPV's and stopped buying the DVDs in 2011 or so, so yeah definitely.

Yup. I used to give them close to nothing.
Maybe bought a DVD/Blu Ray one or two times a year (like the CM Punk one or the many Hart ones).
NXT and the archive are definitely worth it though.

I'm saving money. Use to collect the DVDs and have almost all the Blu-Rays up until the launch of the network. Combine that with ordering about 8/12 PPVs a year before the network.

No. The cost of the network is less then just ordering WM and RR PPV alone. When you consider the cost of 2 starbucks coffee's is more then $9.99 you realize just how great a deal it all is maggle.

I was ordering every PPV despite myself before the Network so I'm definitely saving.

Definitely more than I was giving them just because I didn't watch any of the PPVs aside from Royal Rumble and WrestleMania before WWE Network was around.

Definitely more, before I'd never buy a PPV or DVD, now I can just stream everything with convenience. Worth my six pounds every month.

A few years ago, I bought DVD's and video games. When I did that, the WWE made a lot more money off me. Three years ago I stopped buying DVD's and bought the video games used, the WWE did not make a penny off me. WWE is now making money off of me again, but not as much as when I bought the DVD's and games.

Never buy PPVs. Might go to a bar once in a while that was showing it so they never got my money that way. Don't buy any merch. And I had a phase where I bought a shit ton of DVDs but that hasn't been going on for a decade now.
But not yet with DVDs but yes for more recently.

I'm definitely saving money since I bought the PPVs through Dish for the "Live feed".
now that I have a second podcast where I'm accessing it regularly, it's money well spent.

Less.
At 9.99 if you watch more than I believe 3 PPVs a year you are paying less.
and I generally at least watched Summerslam mania and the rumble.

I have. I had the network for 6 months and haven't purchased a ppv since wrestlemania 25.

Yes, because I don't have Sky, so I couldn't buy the box office shows even if I wanted to, I also don't have Virgin either. Plus the Network has made me a bigger fan so I buy more t-shirts.

I spend less now than before the Network. I have every PPV on DVD (switched to Bluray with SummerSlam 2011) thanks to the Tagged Classics series here in the UK. With eternally waiting for the Network at the time, I stopped buying the PPVs on Bluray after WrestleMania 30. In the few years before the Network, I only ordered Royal Rumble and WrestleMania, maybe another one or two depending on the card too, and watched some on Sky Sports.
