I am not one of those Paul Markham haters but I don't really understand some of his usual points.
Today it doesn't matter that much if the price is $5 or $30.
First of all, 99% of porn surfers can be satisfied with the content freely availably on tubes.
Second, those remaining 1% might be scared to join pornsites because of things like: * hidden cross sales * afraid of being rebilled or having difficulty to cancel * not finding inside the members area what it promisses... or one of the old reasons -*wife reading the CC statement.... or.. * being afraid to be spammed to death (lots of people use one main e-mail address, don't have 5 different ones, and don't feel like creating one just for joining a pornsite) etc...
lack of innovation in porn (reality sites are played out since a long time) and bad economy obviously have an effect as well, but the effect of economy is not that big as some people would hope it is.....
