can the success of sites like twisty's, teenpinkvideos, ultrawiredsex etc be replicated if somebody started today? i'm told gallery spots are very overpriced today and making a profit with them is not easy - especially for teen sites.

Yeah this is unfortunate but there is still room for this. Sites like qmov has done well with it. Their videos seem good but I never been in their members areas. Other sites using dvd content have done well with it also. If done right many people don't know the difference. But I ordered I think between $5-$10k of dvd content to add to my site as bonus videos but it was so shitty I threw it out.
I think many sites can incorporate good dvd content into their members area to increase retention. I think a mistake some site owners do is overload the members area with quanity. They think quanity increases retention. I have not seen that. In my experience if I update often such as a few times per week or even daily with QUALITY content it is enough to get great retention. For example maybe a photo set added daily and 3 exclusive videos added per week. This was able to retain a huge percentage of members into the second month and much longer. I think members don't want to suffle through tons of garbage to find good stuff. They would rather just see the good stuff.
Once more site owners realize this then they will be more picky about content and invest in content more wisely. Even if it is cheap. Adding lots of shit to the members area does not give a member a reason to stay.
