My jaw dropped when I read this. It has to rank as one of the most stupidest statements ever.
How did porn ever become a multi billion dollar industry without giving it all away?

So, sure, kill off the free content, conversions will rise. BUT traffic will drop like a rock too. You will end up at the same amount of $$ in porn each year as the last years... People will not suddenly spend for more porn online.

Then I read this and changed my mind, Nathan had out done himself.
Yes traffic will drop like a rock and conversion ratios will soar like a rocket. Free porn doesn't create the need to buy porn, it already exists. Give people too much free porn and they don't need to buy. The porn magazine industry made billions off the front covers, the video/DVD industry made billions off box covers. The Internet lost billions giving away too much free porn.

Porn has blown up in general, the internet created more content in a year than was available over a decade before.

More content does not lead to more $$$$.
