If current tubes can stay up even 0.25% of visitors only buy something (usually, cams or something different from prerecorded video), I don't think this conversion ratio can go down much further, while hosting bills should go down further since this is how technology evolves. In other words, hosting bills decrease faster than the conversion ratio declines, and there's a point lower which the conversion ratio can't go, because services like cams are not related to prerecorded content and linked to human nature needs of at least 1 guy every X thousands.
The only reason tubes may be broke it is not the "never pay for porn", but north america + europe applying ISP ban (no just DNS ban, but IP ban you can't skip with opensns/googledns). Why to ban tubes? Because can't stop the 30% their viewers being under 18 people, lately reaching mostly via cell phones.
