The problem is very simple. People have got used to selling a months membership to people looking for 20 minutes of fun. It's a simplistic answer but it's basically the problem.
Look at all the moans and you will find someone stating that giving away too much equals anything over ten to fifteen minutes of hardcore porn. The complaint is this stops the seller from selling 30 membership.
I've looked at some Torrent sites and see them selling download tools, so not "free" porn, just cheap porn. Megarotic is a shit site, if free, it downloads slow, it's a real mish mash of crap and a few gems. Torrent sites also have problems, with crap, not knowing what you're getting and poor service.
The replies from the moaners also reveal a lot of ignorance about the porn consumer. "Why by a membership when I can download the whole of "Bang Bus" for free? If your average member burned more than $5 of BW/hosting a month the whole industry would have to change and Tube and theft sites would not exist. The BW bill would kill them.
Fifteen year ago any fool could make money on the Internet if he had a bit of knowledge. Ten years ago it was still easy, five years ago it started to change and got tougher. Todays industry still acts like it was 1997 and now they dream of turning the clock back.
When you sell an over priced, low quality product that suits you for too long the customer eventually wakes up and says no thank you. Did anyone stop and say to themselves "This site is a con ripping off the customer" or "This is simply not worth what they're charging" NO the did not. They just asked for more money for the same work, more tools, more free content and screw the customer.
Now the customer is responding.
Tube sites are the least of the Whiners problems.
