I mean no offence to you as I respect your history in this industry, but if you can pull $250 a week from Pornhub and it doesn't affect your sales elsewhere, then why would you not take that? Unless it is having a huge effect across your other sales then being on there is worthwhile. If you put the video up and you all of a sudden dropped 20% of your daily sales then its hurting you and you stop doing it, but if its sales outwith your reach and not affecting your day to day sales then you just found a new money maker.
That is how I look at it anyway.

This from a sponsor clearly illustrates the harm "Traffic is King and the affiliates system has done to the business.
With hindsight no one but affiliates, and the few who moved on from being affiliates like Robbie, should be thinking they were in any way required to sell porn.
The entire logic of affiliates was flawed from the beginning. You didn't need them at all. You don't need 1,000s of people putting up a barrier between the porn buying sector and the porn selling sector. Having someone on a street corner with a sign pointing to a porn shop. Is fine, having him give out free samples and paying him 50% for every customer he sends is so fucking mad. Only online porn does it.
Making the task of doing this reliant on who could give out the most and best free porn, then archiving it. Is so fucking fucked up only those committing business suicide would contemplate it. Because it was inevitable to where it will go. More free porn than anyone could ever wish for and a sponsor think getting $226 from satisfying the needs of 5 million people as being good.
Even assuming Robbie is blowing up the 5 million and let's cut it down to 1,000 who really want Claudia-Marie. That's less than 10 joins in 1,000. Yes 0.01%. That in anyones book is fucked up. FUBAR.
And anyone who is stupid enough to think Tubes are the end game of giving porn away is as stupid as the guys who first thought of giving porn away to sell porn.
REMEMBER THIS;
SOMEONE WILL COME UP WITH A TOOL TO GIVE AWAY MORE FREE PORN BEFORE LONG.
Maybe then the Tube owners will be in here telling everyone how the new system is fucking up there business of giving away free porn.
