If Camgasm some how got to that level, they might be able to pull it off.

It's nice to see a business-related discussion here, once in a while.
Although I don't consider LiveJasmin the same concept as Camgasm, I agree with your point about the overall feasibility. Whereas, as you stated, LiveJasmin is still a pay-to-play concept (historically, a strong sales strategy), Camgasm seems to be conceptualized as Chaturbate without the nudity (and judging by CB customer trends, that doesn't seem to interest many of the CB paying member base).
The other problem that I see is the fact that they seem to be trying to aggressively cannibalize their own customer base, instead of forcing Camgasm to stand on its own merit and compete as a different niche and brand (I don't agree with this marketing strategy, but that's just me). A quick check of first 10 Camgasm "Featured" rooms (as of right now) shows 6-17 viewers/room (with the vast majority being "anonymous" non-members). The exact same check of the first 10 Chaturbate "Featured" rooms (exact same time frame) shows viewer rates of 1889-7778 viewers/room (with around half being "anonymous" non-members). Taking into consideration the fact that Chaturbate seems to force pop a Camgasm tab to nearly every Chaturbate viewer, I think we can rule out the problem being an overall lack of traffic or exposure (nor do I believe that it is a market saturation issue). My personal opinion, therefore, is that the issue is concept/strategy-related.
TL;DR: Overall, I think that Camgasm has the possibility for potential but lacks its own solid identity. Given it's present marketing strategy, I feel that Camgasm is a failing concept.
