There are a few places where the water is good. Like when I lived in South Carolina and Georgia. The water there tasted good and was very drinkable.
But not everywhere is like that, for instance...I wouldn't drink water out of the tap in New York City if you paid me to.
The better analogy for our situation would be:
Why would you buy Evian IF someone were giving unlimited bottles of Evian away for free?
That's the correct comparison. And guess what? Evian wouldn't allow that to happen.

Well not everyone lives in a desert Robbie. LOL And sorry but your ignorance is showing here. The water in NYC has been consistently voted the best tap water on Earth for decades now. It's cleaner than bottled water. It comes from the mountains of upstate New York.
Blind taste tests have proven people cannot tell the difference between tap and bottled water. It's all psychological, which your comments prove. The analogy holds because water is water, you either pay for it or drink it for free. And bottled water marketers have done a better job of convincing people they will DIE if they drink tap water than porn marketers have done at convincing their visitors they should buy their porn. Period.
Bottom line: If someone is visiting your paysite it's YOUR job to sell them. If you do not, bad on you. Blaming anything else is a copout.
