Strange that in an industry that once sold porn for it's living now gets most of it for free and left to sell what's left. That huge market we thought we had because the Internet was everywhere, we decided to give it away for free.
For some producers it seemed the mentality was "Hmm...the more I give away for free, the more promotional material and exposure...hence more traffic and sign-ups."

I used to see some producers give away vast amounts of their full-size images thinking it would lure more sign-ups. And quite a number of those same producers folded shop with the rest of 'em.

We even adopted that thinking for a while when sign-ups slowed down - we'd increase the freebies everywhere - especially Usenet newsgroups in the earliest days.
