That's why the benefits of having your content removed from tubes are only limited - you win some customers who are looking for specific models or scenes, but for the others you are still competing with free porn in the same niche.
I'm sorry, Tubes along with free porn, are not any type of problem, and never have been a problem for our business. Actually, without free porn and piracy, we wouldn't be talking today and 99% of the adult porn companies would have never been.

Legal or not, Tube are clearly making money, some have been buying rights to DVD's, burning them, and putting them online. They aren't doing this, chopping videos, paying for bw and servers, having employees, and them not produce any sales.

The fact is, they do produce sales, they are worth more than the TGP's/MGP's ever were. The problem with tubes is we can't all mass market on them. You can't take part in the mass traffic stream, day in and day out.

It's not free porn that's the problem, the problem is the mass majority, including myself, haven't figured out ways to tap into these and many other, new traffic streams effectively.
