Come on man. Give me a break. There is nothing "capable" or "skilled" about the template page that they are using on their tube script.

Dear God! I would fire that "team" and do it all myself and make them look like the clue-less idiots they are.

Face it...they have a tube site built on stolen content. The only "skill" was the original owners having the balls and moral ineptitude to do such a thing in the first place. The rest of it is nothing more than a tube script.

If you can set up a mech bunny script, then you have the same "skill" as his "team".

Problem is none of them over there have any idea how to market something. Just LOOK at the pages. A cluster fuck, with no focus.
You base your opinion on mis-information.
1) most ads on the video pages are not prepaid, they are bid on per view
2) sponsored videos are promoted by at least a text link, but if you can read and upload banners, it's a banner below the player too. random video from phub frontpage: http://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=593548480
3) Channels are fully skinned ad wise: http://www.pornhub.com/channel/twistys
4) Standard video pages from channel content use more than below player ads, depending on performance vs normal ads: http://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=573538588 -- this is also different for each geo, since in some geo's we might just outperform the site itself with our special geo targeted ads. The below video banner and above video text link is always guaranteed. The channel button on the top right is always guaranteed which brings fans to the channel videos fully skinned.
