Good to know.

I am?

I don't recall me saying that, nor inferring it in any way, in any post.

I am the producer, and no thanks. I'll keep the cash.

Agreed. It is and I am doing nicely with it.

You are never going to get the traffic brokers, and traffic tube dudes, to worry about the producer/content/BROgrams issues.

As long as BROgrams are willing to pay the ransom to the traffic guys. They are going to keep doing whatever gets them traffic. Whether 20 minute videos, or your whole pay site on their traffic/tube site until they are caught and DMCA'd.

That is one, of many, things that get missed in these threads. This is not one cohesive industry with like minded priorities and concerns. Traffic guys need traffic, and will do whatever they need to get it. BROgrams need traffic, and will pay whomever, whatever, ransom they command. In the end they will claim they have to do it to keep up with the Jones's.

That is how this industry, and much of the world, works. If you want to stop the problem, then stop what feeds the problem. BROgrams paying the ransom. Without money, the tubes can't pay their bandwidth bill.

However, that will never happen. Greed will always win out in the end.

Always.
