i always have my videos removed there so if people really want my shit they know where to buy it...
It's also amusing to check boards where people sometimes beg for someone to post my content or a working password to my site or how some fucker didn't manage to crack my site  During a hackattack my login form simply gets removed 
Maybe that's why MY affiliates still have decent ratios! The only shitty part is is that it's a relatively small niche
Regarding to mainstream porn i can imagine why people won't pay for porn anymore...
it's all over the fucking tubes for free..... |
Yes I think Kink.com really hurt the bondage niche by allowing (and even putting) their content all over the place on the tubes. It fucked a lot of people because they are so big and with so much content. It hit their affiliates first but then it also spread to everyone in the niche and those related to it in some way. By keeping YOUR stuff off you help parry the effects but you still get hit by it somewhat.
That's the story of things for the affiliate too. One sponsor does it, two sponsors do it, three sponsors do it, and soon there are few customers out there willing to pay ever again in the niche. And here we are. It's a damn shame.
