We still produce movie and picture galleries and I often wonder if the time/energy/money spent making them is worth while. Most MGP's have turned into tubes, TGP's are still making sales, that I can confirm but will they end up as pin sites down the road as that format is now taking off.
The way I see it, the MGP's sole purpose was to promote a paysite with samples, the main purpose of most tubes is to get as many page views as possible and sell ad space by impression. The income from sending sales to sponsors isn't a priority anymore unfortunately.
Times change, it's a fact of life. A happy medium would be on pages with sponsored clips the ads are for the paysite uploading that 5+ minute clip. To give the content owner 1 link out of 8 ads on the page isn't right. To make matters worse some tubes are taking their share of the watermark too.
my 2 cents
