New people get online or get credit cards every day. They don't know about torrents yet. Once a surfers learns how to get free porn you lose them. Until that point they are potential customers.

We all know sites who do something to back up our argument, but until people start to name them I ignore it.
Members like to download videos so they can watch it at their own leisure. No matter how good your servers are and their connection the route from you to them can slow everything down. Especially if they want the full quality versions.
Not that streaming will stop Tubes or Torrent sites. But let's just imagine for a minute that 100% of sites stream all their videos. Will it stop Tubes and Torrents? Only in a dream world.
The sites who back Tubes would love it and put all the content onto their Tubes, the big Tubes don't need new content every day. They have thousands of scenes already and the guys who have seen all and not bought something can go away. Or GF themselves.
If they have to Tubes will use DVD content which the absence of watermarks leads me to think they do already. There are hundreds of thousands of titles on the market Tubes and Torrents can use.
So why should we all go to the expense, work and annoy customers to do something that has little benefit?
If we have totally 100% unique content that sells and buyers have to have it could work. If it's porn like 90% of the other sites in the niche and style it will not. Sadly that's what most have.
The truth is while Tubes make a profit they will exist and the harder you make it for some, the better it is for those who get past those obstacles.
Let's just say you make it 100% impossible to run a Tube site with content not owned by the Tube site owner.
What do you think will happen?
I'm going to watch the soccer while you think of the answer.
