We already do it in part with $3 trials, the problem is we are so obsessed with a guy downloading everything in 3 days we piss off the 100 guys who want 3 days of porn for $3. Maybe we are thinking the members are all like us. LOL

Think about it.
Very true about the shortsightedness of many programs. There are a few who "get it," though, so there's hope overall. One thing the industry has always been and will always be is a series of "fuck yeah, me too" plays where it's "follow the leader" if anything shows some level of success.

You're right on the obsession, too. Bandwidth is cheap, and not everyone is a scammer ... if you make a bad impression on the other 100 guys, they're unlikely to convert .. so how much are you REALLY losing?
