In our case (loovin.com), we've got 7 views to the demo site and 4 views in the video (this are views we know that are from them only, yeah... we check this all day long :)).

Even if that's the case, I think sometimes this is what needs to happen that makes you realize the change/s that has to be done to be better. (be more transparent, fire some managers or key people, etc.)
I've done similar things sometimes (not playing at that level but, similar in the end) and what I felt was a big discomfort and a really huge passion for something.
You want to defend your values.
These two together creates a willingness to change the status quo and make something better can move mountains. At the same time I can say this seconds you are terribly fragile.
Not even courage is needed. That's why it's so difficult to explain, it's something you feel inside and need to get out.
If you're doing what you love, you'd feel right. Passions take play here, but there is a catch here: everyone have passion, or have discovered them. So, if you are from the part who have, just follow them.
AFAIK instagram didn't make any cent. Premium filters and and ads would be the first choice, but I heard they decided to focus and grow in people loving their product.
Another big thing to deal with is: to sell or not?
Can't be compared to iBook 2 in terms of UI, but the simple content explanation and the way it's disposed (not linear like a normal book) is excellent.
