That is the one thing that it seems to me that some folks (like you) leave out of your theoretical equations.
Doesn't matter how "good" (which is a matter of perspective...some guys love self-shot porn that looks horrible) the stuff you are shooting is. If it gets stolen and given away for free, it's no better than anything else out there.
I had to make the decision 4 years ago that Claudia Marie's site was going to be mainly about interaction (free cam shows in the members area, direct messaging, etc.), and that the actual WORK we do (the PORN scenes themselves) is just a bonus.
It sucks because the PORN itself used to be so valuable. And the interaction was the icing on the cake that really made us successful.
Now the interaction IS the cake, and the actual porn is almost inconsequential.
