This free porn blaming is just an excuse, because people aren't creative enough to sell porn with good numbers year after year. You said porn isn't an impulse buy, ok, but online porn is. Its just winning the guy over, there are methods to do that even though he may have a tube site open in the next window, trust me.

The guys buying porn are not usually 18 to 30 year olds, they are guys who are older and into their niche and style they have been into for years. They're not the guys surfing around for
anything to jerk of to. This is why porn has changed so little over the last 50 years except in mode, clothing and strength. As for the movie reference this is an excellent way to show how the stories stay the the same and all that changes is the actors locations and technology.
How ever scenes have to be distinguishable. Once they all merge into one they are boring, but ry getting people to spend the money on content that's different enough to enthrall the customer and you soon see why so much is the same.
It does not need to be unique and changed every day. It needs to be shot by people who understand the niche, know how to shoot, can direct models and have a budget to allow them to create good content.
Free porn is not to blame and you're spot on there. This industries lack of a response to free porn is.

Once a guy is in a porn clip site, Tube, TGP or anything porn related the impulse is to buy porn is gone. He's in the shop.
It's now an impulse on
what porn he buys. This business relies 90% on regular buyers. If it were impulse buys the impulse would soon be crushed once he joined a site that failed to meet his needs. I'm sure a lot of sales have been lost this way but not the regular buyers, until we completely piss him off.
