If its content youve been supplying with no exclusive rights, youre now working with saturated content and no experience. Even if you startup cheap, it wont go anywhere most likely

Some producers actually do still keep DVD distribution rights for stuff they shoot.
Some producers actually produce their own stuff not for selling to other existing websites, but to broker on content stores.
Content is always going to be salable, whether exclusively shot last month, or non-exclusive from 10 years ago, there is always a market segment for content in any genre of any age. If they produced it, chances are they understand that genre of content and most likely will have the basic ability to at least present it in a way that is appealing to that market audience.
Then there is the angle that lets say he is just producing for other companies, he's a content producer, he has access to potentially hundreds of models, all the equipment needed and sets, he could easily kick out enough content to throw on a paysite tour in a week at least to get a site launched to affiliates, then during the first month, I'm sure he'd be able to do at least 1 other shoot per site to get next months update in place... If he was smart about it, he could do one shoot to cover multiple niches which would also off-set his production costs greatly...
Lets not forget we work in the adult industry where perception and reality differ greatly from person to person and perception is typically what the industry operates on.
