No Alex you don't get it.
Unless you are prepared to SPEND and SPEND, which I doubt you are and if you did it still would not work. The business is changing. The days of spending $25 to get a customer who by your own admission is looking for something that can be delivered for free, are drawing to a close.
Please forget the stealing it's blinding you. I can go out and buy 500 movies today for $3,000 and never have to bother with a DMCA, my billing being pulled, lawyer, FBI or anything else. I can deliver those movies for 3 cents a time in a good quality, well good enough to jerk off to.
Truth is the porn consumer is not looking to download 100 movies, if you ran a site and knew the BW burn of the MEMBERS AREA you would know this. He wants 20 minutes, that can be compressed and delivered for free or at a price that HE WILL PAY because of the ease and speed.
To sustain the affiliate model we need exclusive content, servers to handle the free traffic, people to upload the free content, galleries, banners, RSS, FHGs, tools, free Chameleon and everything else, we then need people to design them, people to support affiliates, throw parties at shows, buy banners and pay out 50% to what ever %, plus $100 sign up Sundays. And to cap it all affiliates are now telling sponsors what they can and can't do to get traffic.
Sorry but welcome to a changing world.
I will keep my main paysite going as it always has and support my affiliates. But for tomorrow and my families future I will be putting up sites at a price the surfer is willing to pay. Will he pay $2 for 4 movies? I believe he will because I have faith in him and know what he wants.
And please don't scare me with BS about downloading all my site and giving it away for free. Or the surfer will not pay for anything. I've heard it already and have more faith.
What ever happens the last few months have proved there is another way. And every surfer that discovers a site delivering what he needs at a price he likes is another one less for the old model.
