Now as for those generic sites...I'm afraid they can have as many marketing specialists and affiliate reps and big PPS promos as they want. But FREE is still gonna kill them. They can't sell a paysite that has the entire members area ripped and easy to find on a thousand file sharing sites.
well, you're hitting the nail in the head here. Generic sites or "mainstream porn" are due to a a slow death. Well, some of them will die fast. However, they've the resources to change while they're still on time, and that's something not everybody has. ie, I may know a lot, have great ideas and blah blah blah yet I need to build capital to make it happen. By the time I have the money, that great idea may be outdated or made by someone else. Big companies have the chance to change in days or weeks and make things happen. However, most of them (in adult and non-adult, this is a very common problem) are bound to inertia and very unwilling to change.

Then again, if they could only open their eyes, they could still be the head of the pack rather than dying.

But yes, you're right here, GENERIC/MAINSTREAM/DEPERSONALIZED porn is doomed
