Torrent sites probably don't care one way or another if the paysites survive. Maybe it will finally kill the paysites who have a $10,000 tour and a $1500 members area filled with plugins and upsells. Sites with good content, and branding may still benefit and the paysite owners can improve the community or interactivity of their sites for their members. They're already implementing social networking features and leaping way ahead of the old paysite model. However, with the Torrent sites offering premium memberships to more "stolen" content than you'll ever be able to watch and such a huge variety it's almost like a All for 1 Pass into every paysite. They won't necessarily need to monetize with dating or cams anymore. They beat the hell out of any TGP / MGP site for value, and if you look at the trackers you can see a sharp decline in traffic to the old TGP beasts.
