Legit TGP,MGP,Tube sites are a great source of promotion and traffic generation nobody will argue with you on that.

It has just gotten to a point where it is becoming a problem.
that not making content a traffic source, that is making content the revenue generating capacity of an external traffic source.

selling your content in the context that it build traffic to be used however you want is turning your content into a traffic source.

look at cokes deal with american idol, it doesn't matter weather the episode is sold on dvd, given away for on tv , or stolen using bit torrent, the traffic value for coke only gets better the more the content is distributed.

Abundance not scarcity is the value proposition for content that is turned into a traffic source.

Truth is my tube network is stagnant right now because i have not updated the content in many months, but I am doing that as we speak. I don't need sponsor content I have plenty of my own. By the way those clicks under the full length movies? These movies I have license to they are not the sponsors, yet I linked to the sponsor with something like "Click here to download this full length movie". Imagine if it was the sponsors movie, conversions would have been way way better. Bottom line I'm trying to get people to wake up and see is that sex has been used to market other products for many many years. There are other products that we can use porn to sell. There will still be a demand for content. What we need are more products to sell on adult sites, wake up and realize that we cant sell sex for too much longer, so why not use sex to sell other products? Hell if you promote dating sites your already doing this anyway.
oh i agree with you but you are making the same mistake as OZ is, your confusing content as a traffic draw, with content as a traffic source. The two are closely related however this is a difference.

See the coke example above.
