So you are saying they need to invest more in what? Content? So more of their content can be stolen and shown on tubes? How does investing help in combating theft?
Nothing you said helps combat what is being discussed in any way what-so-ever!

Illustrate the the industry perfectly. Thinking members areas have to be filled with just videos and sets that can be stolen. Here's a suggestion to what else a members area can contain.
Live shows. Not a white label site of a webcam site. A real live show with the girls performing, solo, GG or BG. It has to be good sex, not the faking that most scenes now have. So no getting a girl to do 5 or more scenes in a day. They do or don't chat with members. They respond to what member want, within the girls limits.
Scenes need to be varied, don't just throw a girl on a bed or sofa and tell her to get on with it. That becomes boring. Members need to be anticipating on what the next girl will do. The approach is it's live, unscripted and happening now, under the part direction of members.
Small sites that can't afford to have their own exclusive shows can feed of a central site streaming it into their site. Even big sites could do this.
The cost of setting it up is affordable, if you have the space. Girls will do scenes priced according to where the sponsor bases the live show. What most webcam girls earn in a day would cover the cost of 3 scenes in 5-6 hours.
It's not an upsell to a webcam site to squeeze more money from a member, it's part of what he gets for his $30. Of course a tipping scheme could be built in or the option of the girl going for a private one to one. It could be at a lower price than conventional webcam sites. Because there are savings on the traffic costs. Again these are not ways to squeeze more from the customer. It's about giving extra value to customers.
By doing this it will weaken the profitability of Tubes. Very very few people ever bought porn on the Internet. The industry thrived on those few. By enticing back those who will spend money on porn, you weaken the "Free" competition. They need those buyers to keep profitable. Tubes exist on profit, part of which comes from webcam adverts. Offer something from inside the members areas to compete with those advertisers and you reduce the income of Tubes.
WHY THIS WON"T HAPPEN.
Most sponsors spend 50%-70% on traffic. Payouts, support, tools, promotion, etc.
And 10% or less on the members area.
Affiliates will continue to send traffic to who ever pays the most today and screw tomorrow. Sponsors will keep competing for traffic by spending more on traffic.
And that's why they won't compete with Tubes.
If anyone has a better idea then they're free to tell us. Those who don't can dismiss it out of hand. And watch ratios fall.
