One would think that people like RYC would have case studies etc? But none I can find.
The point, and I am sorry this wasn't made more clearly, is that you will never stop piracy so the time you waste trying could be spent actually doing something to increase sales.
I go into this in more detail http://www.adultmarketing.co.uk/2010...-about-piracy/
Again, apologies for not being clear.
If Robbie, or anyone else, wants to spend what is a limited resource (time) trying to stop something that can't be stopped, then cool. As a marketeer, I think that spending that time doing some marketing would be a better choice.
But everyone has the choice to do as they want.
Hope my position is clear now. |
Damian, as you know we have no heat with each other. I consider us "internet friends"
But just as you have given your opinions on what I'm doing...I'd like to give you MY opinion. My opinion is that I have been very successful in this business. I have a ton of experience owning, running, building a few companies in adult that all became wildly successful while I watched thousands of competitors fail.
My experience and knowledge has led me to do each and every move that I make. And yes, when someone shows me something I hadn't thought of I am all ears. Matter of fact what you said about not realizing that you needed to scroll down for the movies yesterday put me in action. You are the only one who ever made that comment...but guess what? That's one too many, and I respect your opinion. So we stuck a link under the first 3 vids with an anchor to take you to the rest. Thank you for that observation.
As far as protecting my content...you're damn right I do everything possible. I watched my sales come back. I watched our rebills come back. All AFTER I put the clamp on piracy. THAT is the result of protecting your content. It can be done, and it does have direct positive results. I just want other paysite owners to know that you CAN stop the bleeding. None of us are powerless.
On a side note...drop me an ICQ. I'm still wanting to get with you and find out if you have been able to download the streaming video yet. I'm hoping you haven't.
