And it wouldn't sell on tubes and torrents? Then either the cams suck or your promos. Sorry

And "have owned" doesn't mean much in what we are facing today.In case you didn't notice all the studios, sites, programs, etc. cutting production, firing employees, and even going out of business And yes, I'm already doing everything you described. Been ahead of the curve on every facet. That's why I still do well.

It means your previous remarks were dead wrong, and goes to show you should not just assume.

But I'm not blind and I see how drastically decreased things are. And while doing social networking and live interaction is the only way to survive this shit on a day to day basis...the money being made is a FRACTION of what it once was in this business.

Nope not blind, just stuck in your old ways, as so many others(See Music industry, movie industry and also the adult industry)

Owning a paysite a few years ago compared to what is happening right now can not be compared.
|
Correction: Owning a traditional pay site does not compare. The Internet has changed, we went social and P2P the business model needs to change as well.

Please understand that guys like me are doing everything to monetize the current situation. And NOW we are also actively doing something about piracy. And it IS working.

Temporary untill improved sharing methods kick in. I repeat it is a lost battle even before it has started.

Unless you are right here looking at my numbers and talking to my people then you are just theorizing what will and won't work.

Nope, my numbers are fine and I don't even actively promote my old shit. It just lives on through social sites that share it, and of course my 8000 torrents(Legal, my own stuff) do their thing as they continue to get seeded.
So I can speak out based on my experiences.

I had 99% of paysite owners tell me two years ago that protecting my content "wouldn't work" too. It would be "hacked", it would "piss off my members"
Guess what? It worked. And claudia-marie.com just had the most successful month of all times this month (sept.), and that is saying something.

Again temporary, wait and see.

Meanwhile...as an affiliate to other programs...I can barely make a sale because their entire members areas are ripped.

Hmm weird, mine come in on their own from promos years back

Change is coming. One way or another. And I'm going to do everything I can to facilitate it. And your comments that insinuate I'm wasting my time are THEORETICAL. I'm the one doing it and seeing the results. You are the one making theories.
|
You are right change is coming but it will be another type of change then you expect or want.

If you really want to speak with authority, then open a paysite NOW and see what happens.

What if I promote one through those means successfully is that not essentially the same thing? Why do I have to OWN the site?
Please explain why only owning a pay site would do that. And while on that note why would I want a traditional pay site as they are obsolete and no longer work?
