Or.. Find your movie, start paying, spend 20 cents after you wack-it, and be done until you get time to do it again.

Or, lets not forget.. VOD sites have 30,000+ DVD's, and since no standard paysite offers that. And who wants to drive 30 minutes to the video store?

VOD members often will purchase a smaller package at first, but they aren't stupid. They understand the smallest package is the most per minute, so to get 8cents a minute, they need to buy the biggest package. And most do.

You sound like you are knocking VOD, why? When you clearly don't understand how it works.
hey now, i understand it. I even push it. I just don't think it's the end all beat all. I'm really knocking the big bold statement the thread made about 80% of users make a second purchase. It was made to seem like a bigger deal than it is.

Your point about the surfer spending 20 cents to whack it to a vod site reinforces my point. The average vod surfer is looking to squeeze every dime out of his porn dollar. That's that much longer between purchases, and that much longer i need to wait for that user to equal a full signup at a traditional site.

Like I said though, i use both methods, just questioning the validity of the original post and not the fact that he has an 80% return. I believe it, I just don't think it means that much in the big picture.
