Porn never was and never will be an impulse buy. The only impulse is which one to buy. The impulse is in deciding to jerk off and then what to jerk off to. Someone is a food shop is not making an "impulse purchase" he's buying food to satisfy a need. And that for our customers is what porn does.
Back in the good old days of expensive hosting few could afford to give away tons of free so the customer who wanted a full scene had to buy a months membership. Since then the world has changed and hosting costs have fell to 10-5% of what they used to be. How did we react?
Did the industry increase or members areas 10-20 times the size of before or did we increase the amount of free porn to give away?
The effect of Tubes on porn is hard to specify, assuming members are flocking to them instead of paying shows how little we know about our customers and their needs.
