I have. I can assure you that lowering the price does not drive you mad volume to compensate. You have to decide what you're actual objective is in that regard. If you have 100 members at $29.95, dropping it to $14.95 is not always going to give you 200 members. Meaning, you just gave yourself a pay cut for no reason.
I have found, as previously mentioned, if you have what they want, they will pay the $29.95 assuming you give them good value for the money. Where you draw the line on that value is going to be different for everyone.
There are many surfers out there, typically the under 30 crowd, who will rarely pay for porn and are happy to brag about it. However, for this demographic, it does not take much to get these guys off, much like in real life. Some naked skeezer getting fucked, and they pop off in 2 minutes.
However, as people age, their tastes typically become more refined. In short, it takes more than just any naked chick to get off. They also have less time, and patience, to deal with all of the nonsense to try and "beat the system". If they have the money and credit cards, they just buy it, rub one out, and get back to their lives.
What I am getting at here is there could be 100 million people in the U.S. (whatever it is). You are not going to convert them all to Republican or Democrat. You should not waste your time trying. I've never understand the insane amount of wasted time, money and energy trying to persuade deadbeats.
There are people who do buy porn religiously. There is a sliver of others who occasionally buy porn if the content/website is good. You should focus you efforts on them, and stop worrying about the others.
