I was always critical of the trend to compete at giving away free content. The only limit was the cost of B/W. Back in the day, there were many stories of affiliates posting TGPs on sites and losing money or breaking even because of the cost of B/W. On sites, some producers could afford to buy spots.

B/W drops to a level Tubes could profit and the rush to give them free content turned into a stampede. And 1-200 views to a sale turned in 1-40,000. Numbers are an example. Even at a 0.5% conversion, rate the loss of money was unsustainable for most. The industry was only propped up by the increase of surfers from countries we could bill.

All this I predicted and was told I was wrong.

Sites promoting themselves as they did in 2008 will lose sales in the future. We have to engage with the surfer more than free content or text.

The amazing thing about the trolls is none have anything better to offer, few have a link to promote and most are stuck in the past. This idea will work because elevating a porn model to more than her body does work. How many times has it been claimed surfers buy a model because they fall in love with her, your business relies on it, this is all about raising her attractiveness above her physical looks.

Of course, this can't be done properly with Third World girls who can't speak English. Is that why so many are anti, they can only afford Third World girls?
