It doesn't "SLOW" your sales down, that is fucking totally impossible. The logic behind that doesn't even statically make since. You people think piracy, means every person in the world now has it. Please, think people.. Exposure is exposure.

Coke buys ads and never sells a fucking can. You do the math.
So if I will try to find any logic at all:

Here we are in 2008, say I'll take a million of guys with a broadband that are straight, gay, bi, weird but not asexual and they just NEED porn, cause, as we know ourselves sex and its visuals is kind of in demand by every healthy male. I don't care if they hack in Korea, Australia, States or Belarus.

You have all those great tools all the great sites with asses bigger than your screen, billing that will charge your credit card before you even pull it out, you can bill more people than ever worldwide, geo filter traffic, trade it all around the place with other marketers, all this shit and all this perks to get the most out of the business.

Instead of trying to take advantage of that you just put up 25 000 full length scenes that are ripped off and playable by any broadband pc, burn tons of bandwith and send one half of the guys over there to get every 50 000 visitor not only to do his free "branding" and send all his mates links for free porn but also to pay for something?

Where is the logic behind this?

As far as I definitely agree greed is a big motor in this and there will be always a lot of screwing going on once it will be allowed and tolerated, I can't see the ingenious logic of "branding" behind it, I can't see any logic at all, just greed.
