No things will not get better, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot of money to be made.........

Also, tubes are just a small part of the problem...File sharing has become a lot more "mainstream" now, the growth of file sharing forums, torrents & tubes is literally exponential.

The other part of the problem is the lack of trust between consumers and online porn websites. People have been BURNED by cross sales, fraud, etc. I was talking to a buddy of mine and he was telling me how he had been burned 4-5 years ago and would never put his CC # in an online porn site again. Then he was telling me about how he found free porn, he was talking like it was the newest greatest secret he had just discovered.

The two factors above contribute to each other, and unless there is a major shift, this industry will continue to decline.

THE GOOD NEWS IS, mainstream is growing exponentially. Just a tiny fraction of people are buying goods online and that # is growing exponentially. If you are is despair about "net porn sales" I suggest you look into mainstream. I'm glad I did. ;)
