Great idea, I said this a year ago about adopting the "iTunes" pricing model.
Stocktrader, you do realise the first thing that wil be cut is the traffic expenses. So no selling traffic to anyone so they can filter it and send it to a site that pays them a lot of money.
Hang on. Thunderbolt just hit me. you have tons of cheap traffic. buy some content, it's very cheap, set up a paysite and sell $5 memberships for 30 days. Or 20 cents a scene. Adjust the prices as you see fit.
Go direct customer to product. 
Mafia Man agrees with me.
Just don't expect anything but abuse from affiliates. And don't make a join link that doesn't work even if the other one did.  |
$5 for one damn movie is not slashing prices Paul. How much content is in the average paysite?
Also, I have no interest in running my own sites. A $5 per month subscription would work great for a big ass company with a ton of content and you will see it in the near future.
Regardless of what your dinosaur ass says the pricing model for porn is going to change and is already changing. Whether it be per scene pricing, the netflix model, the steam model, the tube / selling of advertising model or something else entirely is hard to say but $29.95 per month paysites are and will continue to decline in sales overall. It's not like your ass is going to start up a site but those that want to be in this industry in the future are going to do something different or die out eventually no matter what.
"Back in my day we paid $1 to watch a movie at the theater and now they give them away for free on TV! God damned television stations are ruining the sweet deal we had, let's make more laws and try to go back there!"
