Here is my take on the new PB odds vs. MM vs. C4L(NY):
I certainly do not like odds of 1:292m($2) for the jackpot, which is about as high as MM($1) now. Sure, you could get 2 of MM for the same price, or go for C4L's lower odds of 1:22m($2) instead.

Now that $310m PB has been won, there wont be excitement to play it until jp goes above $100m.

So, lets compare just the $1m prize:
MM: 1 in: 18,492,204
PB: 1 in: 11,688,054
C4L: 1 in: 7,282,016 ($1,000 a week for Life)

C4L beats PB; however, MP on MM for $2 with a chance for $5m(x5) beats C4L's $1m!
But, C4L's jp is just slightly higher for $9m; thus if and only if MP is x5 you still have x1.5 better odds with C4L. Nevermind that lower prizes odds are even better.
