You're spot on here. a passive provider of photos and video content. It only worked for a short time. And is not working as well now.

Don't see advertising and up selling making the porn industry a lot of money. The pool of people we can advertise are small and probably if the advertising has to support the good delivery of a quality product it will be too much. Works for a few with Tubes, but that revolutionary idea has lost money for the porn business.

Up selling is a problem, because it's usually at a price most don't want to pay. Otherwise they would not pre click them.

Maybe 50 sites, or more, linking together and charging the viewer on BW used offering him a wide range of products including live chat, dating, videos, live shows, etc might work. We've all seen what massive traffic Tubes get giving it away, but the return on the traffic is a low ratio. Maybe turning those sites into IPTV and not charging too much would work.

Charge the customer for what he consumes, when he consumes it and at a price relating to the product cost to deliver it to him might work.
