Who said anything about "stop offering products that thieves want to steal?" I didn't!

Here's a scenario for you. On one corner there is an adult video store. All they sell is adult videos and magazines. On the opposite corner there is another adult video store. They also sell adult video and magazines but they also sell toys, clothing, and a lot of other product. Not only that, they often have porn stars visit their store for autograph sessions. They have contests all the time and the winners get prizes and free services. They have a nice big parking lot for easy parking. They have a drive thru for returning your rented videos. Every Friday night if you rent 2 videos you get a free coupon to save a few dollars at PizzaHut. And they have lots and lots of other cool offerings for their customers. Now here's the thing...

If someone steals videos from the smaller store that only sells videos, they'll feel the crunch more then the other store who doesn't rely so much on only their video sales to pay their bills. It's called diversifying. If you only offer picture and video product in your members area and people are out there stealing all your shit, then it makes perfect sense to start offering more then pictures & videos so that your not relying solely on your pic & video content to keep your members around.

And no...I'm not talking about selling toys in your members area!
