1. The bait and switch with the tube sites. Tube sites often show short, appealing animated clips to bring the customer in for a "Free membership." They then bang the hell out of their card, and then leave the customer with a members area that has nothing close to what the member thought he was going to get. Even though practice is shady, the niche obviously converts or there wouldnt be banners for 3d porn on nearly every tube site.

2. The second way is to produce extremely high quality 3d porn. This is extremely expensive and time consuming and it has to be damn near Pixar quality to be able to retain the customer. Here is an trailer of just one example of a high quality animation we did: http://vstroker.com/videos/katietrailer.html. This sells.

3. You use your animation talents and put together a 3d adult game.The bar has been set really low for what people think is good when it comes to adult 3d games. For under 10k you can throw up a site, use a crappy game engine, and get two characters screwing and then build upon that. My first game I started in 2007 for under 15k and it has done over a mil in sales. Of course affiliates take about half of that but not a bad return on an investment.

My advice would be to partner up with someone and figure out how to do #3. 3d stills are COMPLETELY dead and the only use I can see someone having for them is to fill up a members area to give the perception there is more going on in the members area than there really is. If you have the talents, then I would recommend #2 but as you probably know the bar for this is much higher than it used to be. The consumer is looking for motion capture quality animations or they just aren't interested. The tube sites promote god awful animations but the surfer never knows because he only saw a 4 second teaser before he gave up his card to be tagged. Little does he know that what he saw in that "preview" is pretty much the entire animation.
