The growth in games revenue largely reflects additional revenue associated with management of a carrier platform for games in Germany, and additional development projects out of our games studio in the quarter. Other content includes a broad range of primarily licensed product delivered in the form of WAP, Video, Wallpaper and Mobile TV. The increase in other content revenue year over year relates to new revenue streams related to management of carrier advertising platforms and addition aggregation, and the expansion of direct to consumer activities in the US, as well as increased licensing revenue. ### Cost of Revenues *(In thousands)* | Cost of Revenues: | Successor Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 | Predecessor 2007 | | --- | ---: | ---: | | License Fees | $1,785 | $1,549 | | Other direct cost of revenues | 102 | 100 | | Total Cost of Revenues | $1,887 | $1,649 | | Revenues | 5,003 | $3,356 | | Gross Margin | 62.3% | 50.9% | License fees represents costs payable to content providers for use of their intellectual property in products sold.
