Ask any customer if they would rather pay $50 for a Blu-ray player or get one for free and they will all take the free one. The problem with the porn business is that customers told us what they wanted and we gave them that and much, much more.
No the problem with this business was most who came into it didn't know how to sell, thought there was no need to pay for porn and thought getting 1,000s of people to look at a free image was the key to selling.

IOW we taught them not to pay.
