Tons of industries have to figure out the right amount of free.
The people who give out samples at Whole Foods or Costco have a number of metrics they have to hit, which mean they are incentived to give away a lot of food. Some people go to the store on a good giveaways day to basically eat a free lunch and some, while doing their regular shopping, like to check out new things they might want more of.
I'd love to be pulling in 2005 dough with 2005 work from only doing the couple of things I was doing in 2005. But I make money when a site puts up some of my photos with a link. Samples lead to sales when the potential customer likes the product.
In the era of tubes, I would say that my biggest problem is not piracy, but that most tube sites will not post photos with links; they will only post links with videos.
