Especially on your Gay Tube. You know if a guy is Jerking off to a video with his Dick in one hand and his three minutes runs out and it says, join to see the rest of the video in HD, he is going to use his other hand to get the credit card out.
IT'S A NO BRAINER!

Two things.
#1 Anybody who takes that stand LOSES. It's that simple. There is so much competition in the tube space. It's very very difficult to continually grow a tube that doesn't have full length ripped clips. VERY DIFFICULT. Cutting back to 2/3 minute clips means you are not interested in being competitive in that space. If you aren't going to be competitive what's the point?
#2 GayTube is an entirely different market. Gay Surfers are still buying. We've had many videos that were 5 to 10 minutes in length result in 20 to 60 signups in one day to that sponsor. GayTube is growing every month in traffic, revenue and profit. It will be our company's biggest money maker. Why blow up a successful business model with a bright future?
I understand what you are saying. But at the same time I have to look at the reality. Stephan from XVideos is NEVER going back. YouPorn, RedTube, PornHub, XTube are all never going to drop back to <5 min clips. It's not going to happen. I have to look at Twistys and GayTube as two seperate businesses and make business decisions that set up each of them for the best long term outlook. Taking a strong stand on GayTube for the future of paysites is a backwards move imo. The short term and long term outlook for paysites is grim imo. No matter who you are it isn't pretty. The long term outlook for GayTube is very promising. I can't sacrifice that.
NOTE: Btw I'm just being 100% honest with you. I know I'll probably get ripped for what I just wrote.
