Paying to watch/use electronics

chris_r · 29 Mar 2018 at 04:00

Hey

I have had a look about and cannot find anything without being taken over by Kodi related sites

Is there any way i could charge for use of certain items for example TV and or PS4 use?

Not been to an internet cafe for many years but surely they most use a similar set up.

Help appreciated

You mean rent for a week or so?

chris_r · 29 Mar 2018 at 04:48

No, as in if i owned the store and i were the one charging the user(s)

It's called a business like CEX.

That makes no sense at all to me. It is nothing like CEX?

CEX is a store to buy and sell electronics.

Like a shop where you can go in and play games for a bit for a price?

You mean a console arcade? Probably against the games and consoles EULA to charge people.

I did this with my little sister when we got a sega mega drive.

I charged her 50p a week, which at the time, was a substantial portion of her weekly income.

I reinvested the profit into a high suger, sweet based portfolio, which in turn, has allowed me to achieve impressive weight gains in my middle life.

There are definitely places that to do. I've seen people convert buses into mobile console arcades for kids birthdays and the like.

I would imagine significantly higher licensing fees

Good sell OP. This sounds like a tight business plan. How do I invest?

You can charge what you like to use them but being able to play any content will depend on licensing.
