@Ilovetea Well.......it's how you look at it..... There seems to be a lot of ahem, "Entertainment" of sorts...... I won't spell it out as I'll be poofed again.... but your idea is good.... as is @brewhaha

I understand they will do what makes them more money, but are the hosts what brings in the buyers or are the products bringing the buyers in?  I have never purchased a product because of who was hosting. I have also not watched or checked what products were presented if there was a host name on the show title that I didn’t care for.

Some of the products that continue to be very popular, do not need a host.... They'd sell anyway. At times a host may inhibit the sales a bit.

They could put them on a "rotating wheel".....and we could watch it go around and around, lol.... 

(My father despised that I watched the Q.. and that's putting it mildly.)

eta//I use it in the bg..do not watch the horrid news nor tv stuff... want the white noise sort of and it's voices.

Bingo. This seems to conflict with your statement that you don't purchase a product because of who is hosting.  If you aren't watching or checking products because you don't care for the host, then you aren't purchasing either so in effect, for some, hosts do bring in buyers.

I won't buy something just because a certain host is presenting.  I buy if I really want the products.  However, I won't watch, regardless of what is being shown, if I don't care for the host.  Therefore, QVC gets no money from me when certain hosts are presenting.

As an aside, these hosts are under contract.  I wonder if their hours/time slots are negotiated into their contracts.

Exactly my stance.  There are several hosts I will not watch at all.  But then, I don't watch too much QVC anymore anyway.  When I purchase,  I usually search items on the website.
