there is the same trajectory in porn.

people want amateur reality content, and since it is cheap to produce there is no reason to spend money on some glam shot that is less and less popular with time.

once you grasp that things will fall into place.
Yes amateur is in a lot more demand than top end glamor. But that's not the point.

It's about supply and demand.

There are a handful of producers who can produce top end glamor. There are 1,000s who can produce amateur. So the Amateur market is saturated and SALES PER SCENE OR SITE are poor. And sales on a top end glamor scene are better. Far far better.

That's why Internet only based companies can't afford the top end shooters and DVD companies can. It's not about only the money spent, it's about talent, skill and experience.
