No, that is just you being greedy and shortsighted. After fully implemented 50% payouts on micropayments would make you more than you make under the current system. There is an entire world full of consumers out there that you can't bill with your current system. You will never see a dime from them.

Do you not understand that the entire purpose of selling a video for $1 or $2 is to get customers you would otherwise never get? Mainstream businesses often spend $100 to $200 to aquire a new customer that will make them about $10 profit on each order. They are prepared to wait years for their efforts to pay off. This shortsighted ass industry can't wait months. I mean, here you are arguing about affiliate percentages when the difference in cost would be 20 or 30 cents.

Also, for the third time. Microniche products would not fare as well as general porn under this system. They would still work but the benefits would not be as immediate. In short, you can wait it out longer than most.

Again, it's not a theory. It's a widely successful business model that has been implemented successfully in multiple industries that all have a higher production cost than fucking porn. It's a fucking joke to say that it won't work in an industry that in comparison costs fuck all to operate. It's a bigger joke to say 10 people need to babysite a damn website when things 1000 times more difficult are managed by 4 or 5.

It is a guarantee that porn will eventually hop on the train but it's never easy getting through to old school folks that have been beating the same horse for 10 years. As you can see from the replies in this thread they don't even understand what I wrote even though I put it in extremely simple terms.
