actually what i said back then - like 4-5 years ago - was that people have limited time per day they can spend actively online

nowadays they want to spend a lot of time on Facebook, Twitter etc - leaves less time to be jerked around in CJs, TGPs etc. until they signup somewhere - ergo tubes are a convenient solution for them

the biggest mistake from the paysite sector in that time was not to move forward in technology but to still offer cookie cutter sites with twenty 320x240 mpg videos and demand $39.95 for that (plus hidden xsales)

tubes were free, yes, but they also offered a user experience that was light years ahead of what 99% of the paysites offered back then

a big part of this industry dug its own grave and now sits there with a shovel and cries
