Sure would have. I see it now. I won't name sites on here because it would be bad business.
But I can tell you that some sites that have GREAT content and have NEVER done x-sells or anything at all, and were some of the biggest selling sites I push on my tgp's have now dropped to NOTHING because they are all found for free on the pirate sites.
They put out a new update and within the hour it is seeded all over the internet for free.
Next time we see each other Tony, let me open up my stats remote and show you some numbers that will freak you out. Especially when you see the "clean" companies that have fallen so far because of stolen content.
When I see one of the sites who we all know are clean and totally against x-sells and I'm showing a 1:9,390 ratio with them...I know why. It's not rocket science. If it's free people will take it.
If I give you a gold watch for free...and one for everybody that you know. Then you aren't ever going to come to the jewelry store no matter how honest they are.
That's what I meant by: x-sells don't even come into the equation if nobody is making a "regular" sale.
Not saying that bad and over aggressive billing isn't a bad thing too. I just totally disagree that it's THE bad thing when I see with my own two eyes what is happening to the sites I promote.
And since I just happened to start the site in early May of 2007....right before tubes and torrents really took off, I saw the sales rolling in like crazy. And then when our stuff got noticed and put up everywhere for free, I saw the sales drop. Upon stopping that? Sales went back up.
That's a pretty simple equation. I don't know what else to say. But this pornbb thing is HURTING people. As are the literally thousands of sites like it.
Go to google Tony. Now type in Mandy Blake torrent
It makes me sick to see that shit. It isn't right, and it's costing you money.
