Yes, I unfortunately agree with you. Many of the players in this biz have allowed this self-destructive marketing model to go too far, and it is now looking less and less likely that there is any way to stop the car before it reaches the edge of the cliff.
The big fish are gambling that they can outrun the small fish in this game, by destroying the market, in hopes that once the herd is thinned out they will be able to get back into the game with less competition.
Without a crystal ball it is impossible to know if there is any reality to this plan, or if they are simply blowing up the ENTIRE business, while killing off their own futures in the process.
The one thing that seems clear however, is that the largest players are causing the most harm, while the smaller guys THINK they have to play the same game to stay alive.
I do not believe this is true. If you want to chase cars as they fly over the cliff and into the abyss, then more power to you!
The idea that tube site X gets the most traffic because they give away more free content than tube site Y is somehow a business model worth emulating is a short-lived endeavor.
The porn world is a bubble, and it is quite tiny in comparison to mainstream. Advertising revenue based upon traffic to the largest tube sites is still limited to porn-related advertisers. You can never achieve so much traffic from porn that Nike or Ford will begin paying your hosting bills, so the small fish that large tubes are killing off, are the very same content producers and advertisers that the big fish actually require, if this business model was to actually continue - which is why it will not. It is only dog-eat-dog until you run out of dogs.
