That said those of us producing and delivering content that the members are requesting and desiring are still doing very well.

Fuck the surfer to buy more traffic has been the methodology of this part of the business since I came on the Net. That is why the surfer prefers Tubes and until we change it we will never combat Tubes.
For the 8 years I've been active most people spent more on getting traffic that does not spend than keeping or converting the traffic that does spend. For most of that 8 years ratios have got worse, but with new customers coming in there were always excuses to be found to cover up falling ratios. Today there is no great increase in traffic in fact many see a decrease and the ratios are still getting worse.
The excuse now is they prefer a shitty Tube site to a paysite and it's the Tube sites fault.
So that's it because so few have a decent idea on the first page and I doubt if the next two will change. But here's what I'm doing to combat Tubes.
I'm opening a site that can't be replicated by any clown with a camera, for any money.
I'm beefing up the members area of PMT with new content and free live web cam.
And I'm looking at the prices and memberships we offer.
The rest of you can dream on about locking down content and taking Megarotic to court.
