TRANSLATION:

Subscriber fees > Box Sales

If it came down to it, they' give you the client for FREE and just charge you the monthly subscription fee because that's where they rake in the money.

No, they still want the cash up front. Read the posts from other CPAs (I'm a recovering CPA) above yours. They recognize the revenue on their income statement over time as that's GAAP, but trust me they love them some cash flow. Cash is king, especially in this economy today.
