And there you have it...the paysite paradox:
Quote:
kink is definitely the most worthwhile site, and if I was willing to pay for it, that's where my money would go.
But after 15 years of solid internet pornology, I've wisened up. I mean, ten years ago it was true that you needed to pay for porn to see anything decent. There was no such thing as youtube, so there was no redtube or slutload either, so nobody believed you could just stream nigh-quality video for free and somehow turn a profit.
What's more, in those days there was nothing called a torrent either, and the viability of download sites got dramatically worse the more people tried to use them.
Paying $10 a month for unlimited porn was the best thing I did, back in 1997. Today, it's a loser's bet. Sure, you might be able to say you get the latest porn before anyone else, but is that really something you actually want to pay money for?
Masturbating is such a context-sensitive enterprise, getting 'the best' just becomes an exercise in frustration, just like the 'dragon chasing' that plagued my drug-taking career, you will never be able to get better and better (or should I say worse and worse) porn because the system in your brain responsible for arousal has been overloaded. My tolerance level got so high I could hardly even get an erection if there wasn't at least one midget or a girl with two hands up her asshole.
So not worth it. The good news for people like me is that porn tolerance goes away pretty quickly. I ended up stuck in a place where I had to share a room so internet masturbation was impossible. Or any kind of masturbation for that matter. My roommate jerked off once in the dark and the noises were disturbing enough I told him cut it the fuck out.
However, after just 2 weeks of that, I returned to civilisation and discovered I was ready to blow my load practically before I had even logged in. Shit, I used to spend 2 hours lazily jerking it while perusing my absurd multi-terabyte collection, and not be able to find anything interesting. After the break, I couldn't get past the first 3 videos.
I've never paid for porn since. Anytime I felt like I needed something new that wasn't free, I've taken that as a sign I need a week or two's holiday from the personal arts.
