Talk:MLB Advanced Media

message: The second sentence of this article reads: 
"The company operates the official web site for the league and the thirty Major League Baseball club web sites via MLB.com, which draws four million hits per day." 
In the professional practice of Web analytics, there's no actual measurement called a "hit." The term "hit" is used most often by publishers or unsophisticated news reporters to refer to either page views or visits, but sometimes to even less ordinary measures. Saying "hits" is often a means of inflating Web site traffic, for example where unique visitors would be the pertinent metric. Site owners report "hits" instead of unique visitors because page views -- the presumed synonym for hits -- are usually far higher than unique visitors. 
I would suggest that the article insist on an actual traffic metric from an independent source like ComScore or Nielsen. These services have their own measurement problems, such as statistical extrapolation from survey data, but short of looking at the actual Web analytics tools in use at mlb.com the services are the best we have.

message: A discussion has been place to consider making the BAMTech page a standalone article. I agree to this as BAMTech has a majority ownership by The Walt Disney Company. Maintaining the BAMTech information in the MLB Advanced Media section is illogical as the MLB Advanced Media no longer have the majority stake, and the purpose of BAMTech is going to be shifting from serving MLB to serving The Walt Disney Company.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: This section tells us nothing whatsoever explaining what MLB At Bat app is for or why it might be useful. 
The 2nd paragraph and accompanying quotation seems to me is completely extraneous and should be deleted.
Can someone add a description of what the app is for and what it does?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evx (talk • contribs) 00:16, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The section definitely needs expansion, and if a good history of the app can be added, then a separate article would probably be warranted. Unfortunately, creating this kind of content isn't I'm good at. - BilCat (talk) 23:56, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
