No they will load Tubes with content they have the license for and keep their traffic and take others. It's long term thinking. Then they will not need many who now work in porn. Other content owners will continue to close and Mansef will buy up their libraries for cents on the dollar. Will they need affiliates, traffic people, designers, etc. when the customer has few options on who to spend his money with?
you are confusing something - what you describe here is called "business". if someone sells his content to them and they want to give it away for free it's their thing - as long it's covered in the license agreement. you may not like it, but unfortunately most people will not care about it.
just look back how many car manufacturers existed in 1920 or 1930 and how many there are now. i'm pretty much sure most of them were also pretty pissed when Ford sold the T-Model for a fraction what all other cars cost at that time. but still other companies survived cause they had something to offer what the T-Model did not have.

the world cannot rotate backwards
