So what is PHP? Why would a member pay the monthly fee?


>No 3rd party banners - only banners directing users to the paysite of the video they are watching


>faster streaming - giving a better user experience.


why would a studio want their TUBE EDITED content in PHP?


>only your banners are shown next to your content - trust me, this is golden real estate. They already have your permission to use the videos you have uploaded via their content partner program but why would you NOT want this in PHP?


why would a studio want to give full scenes to PHP?


>again, only your banners are shown next to these videos


>PHP will allocate a % of its gross subscription revenue and payout the studios that are uploading exclusive content on a view share model based on views. So for example if my FakeTaxi scenes have 25% of views from the exclusive pool, I will receive 25% of the portion allocated to the view share model.


in 2010, we did a poll on YouPorn, asking the users if they would be willing to pay for an ad free version of YouPorn, ie YouPorn premium. We had the poll up for 24 hours. The response was incredible, and the average price users were willing to pay was $5 usd. We never tried to implement this because of the content partners and the sheer amount of time and energy we would have had to spend on trying to explain that this was a good move for them. We would have tried to implement the view share model as PHP are doing. We referred to it as the satellite payment/distribution model. I started building Cloud.xxx and tube.xxx because of the YouPorn premium service. Cloud.xxx was a tool to studios for tube clip distribution, encoding, watermarking etc. I needed to build this so I could aggregate tube clips ready for tube.xxx. You pretty much have what I wanted to build in PornHub premium already. That's why I am a big supporter.
