The long hard war against piracy and ideas to win back out industry.
At last people are really taking piracy seriously and doing something about it. The fight has started on one level, it has to be taken on by many more and taken to more levels. The time of sitting back is over. If you want to survive in this business.
The long term aim of companies like Mansef is probably to eliminate the competition as much as possible. To create an industry dominated by 10 to 20 companies. By doing this they could also eliminate most affiliates and the need to give away loads of free content. They are not stupid and realise with few companies competing for traffic the need to give surfers everything for free is self defeating. The need for 1,000s of affiliates will also disappear.
So how can those still in the business fight against it?
Sponsors.
Members area have to be good enough to warrant a month or longer membership. Content of members areas has to improve in leaps and bounds. Members have to want to stay to see the next days additions. It will no longer work for sites to add poor porn quality content, members are not stupid and won't stay to see another scene that's the same as what's already on the site.
It's time for imagination, innovation and creativity to take over when creating porn. Also variation needs to be included in the mis. No matter how good it is, once the viewer has seen 30 scenes of girls being picked up on the roadside and fucked in the back of a van. Another one won't make the majority of members stay around. A diet of constant prime Angus Steak does boring after 30 days.
And the amount of models faking it has to be reduced. There were comments about models not being able to act. Many of them can't even fake a decent orgasm on file. They use the same old tired phrases over and over again. Depending on the girl they will either OOOH or AAAGH throughout the scene. Sometimes when no one is touching them. If a model can't deliver the goods, send her home. Because putting poor porn quality on a site isn't encouraging members to spend money.
You can fool some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time. But you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Especially if you're selling to a repeat buyer. He soon wises up.
Also IMO live shows of quality can be added. They can be chat like on a webcam, live scenes like we already shoot and the only thing holding it back is the imagination and creativity of the producer. It has to be good and the attitude of the more the better has to change. Often less is better.
All this will take money. Shooting content for cut price makes it tough to shoot anything worth while. From the early days sponsors were offering me $1500 for 5 set and video scenes. Fortunately I was able to tell them where to stick it, politely. But others who were not in my situation snapped it up and and churned out low quality content for those who thought it was right to sell crap.
Affiliates.
Sending traffic to anyone associated with major Tubes or piracy, either supporting, owning them or advertising on them is like sharpening the knife of the person about to assassinate you. Because when these companies have taken over the industry the last thing they will need to spend loads of money on is traffic. The surfer will have few options on who ends up with his money. Affiliates strength is in having 1,000 of sponsors competing for their traffic. If it becomes 20 companies, they can trade amongst themselves. Affiliates may disappear, surfers appetite for porn will not.
So don't send traffic to Brazzers, AFF or anyone else connected to piracy.
Support those who do fight against piracy. Support those delivering a good product to your traffic. Don't send traffic to people who will fuck you in the long run. They are just as bad as those who will shave.
This fight should of started 15 years ago. Ten years ago would of been great. Five would of been good. Today it has started. Who has the balls to take up arms?
Sorry for the long post but it has to be said.
