I'm not in support of Tubes, I'm in support of logic.
Forums are far greater numbers than tubes, they are private, and they have scripts to mask referring urls. They post passwords and full length movies, entire photo sets, and so on. Paysites get hits from them, daily. I market on them and can and have produced 100+ sales from one single forum in a day.
People should start asking paysites how type-in traffic sales are doing. Man, it's damn hard to find many paysites that have had a drop in type-in sales. Even though webmaster traffic and sales are down.
If paysites takes the time to look, they will often find the sites with the highest stolen content counts, actually produce the most type-in sales and traffic. The more "free content exposure" from any traffic source a paysite gets, produces more type-in sales.
Paysites are pointing fingers because they can't explain why ratios/sales have slipped. The free content give aways and rips is what is holding them, they need to look in other areas to find what the problem is.
