Porn.com is competing directly with the tube sites, because they show the same boring generic content. No wonder that they have to lower their price point.

That's exactly what I think too. And it still won't work because all of the stuff they have IS on the tubes and torrents.
But having said that...I think that every site out there should lower their memberships to loss than $10 a month. All of you. I think that would be great!
And I'll keep ours at $29.99 recurring and make even bigger sales and more money because my shit will appear to be even more valuable.
By the way...I woke up on Monday listening to the news babbling on and on about how it was "Cyber Monday" or whatever b.s. they make up to coerce consumers.
So I put up a big join link on my non-affiliate tour offering a one year non-recurring $200 membership (which saves a person about $160 for the year) as a one day "Cyber Monday" special. I didn't do anything except put that link up and took it down the next day. It was easy money.
I'm thinking about doing another one in an email out to my database of ex-members around the first of the year. While you guys are thinking "Micro" I'm thinking "Macro"
I make a pretty big share of $79.99 for 90 days non-recurring sales too.
And those guys "rebill" because when their 90 days are up...almost 100% of them re-sign up. They just don't like to be rebilled automatically.
It's weird. I also have a "VOD" side to the site where I have all of our old scenes that were already ripped on torrents before I started protecting our stuff, and I offer those at $10 a download per scene!
And a lot of people will buy those scenes at $10 each and end up spending hundreds of dollars when they could just join and get them all for $29.99
The key isn't necessarily "micro-payments", but rather a variety of options.
My people get a $29.99 30 day recurring, a $10 5 day non-recurring, the Intellichat $2.95 1 day trial that recurs at $29.99 for 30 days, a 90 day $79.99 non-recurring, and the $10 per scene VOD. And they all make a nice percentage of sales.
