Your point Paul seems to be: things are not as good as they were 15 years ago. The answer? Yes and no. YES the "old" online adult business model - the one YOU failed at btw, even when a retarded monkey could make sales in the pre-Tubes days - has changed. But NO this does not mean the Adult Industry is shrinking.
You see, porn has consolidated, like all successful Industries, where only a few major players have emerged. But just because Amazon exists does not mean other online retailers have just given up and gone away. Just because you fail at seeing where all the money has shifted does not mean it's gone.

Why do you have to make it personal?
No, I don't know how many sales you make daily, I only know that people who say "if" they did this or that don't.
The industry has consolidated and part of that has brought about a less important role for affiliates. 15 years ago every sponsor who wanted affiliates did everything they could for them. Today sponsors do very little or will you argue with that as well?
So tell us where has the money shifted and I know it hasn't gone.
15 years ago free porn was a small part of the industry, today it 99.99%. That's only 1-1,000 and it's never as good as that. Tubes and Torrents are a place to get free porn. The money that was spent on porn is being spent outside.
I'm pointing out that sponsors are less reliant of affiliates and the future for many of them is to bring traffic generation in-house because it has a better ROI. Why allow someone else to submit sample scenes to Tubes when it can be done by someone cheaper?
