With only 100 sites carrying video the need to promote will be reduced by such a large factor webmasters will not be needed to drive traffic.
For me, that almost sounds like a wet dream

It's not true though... there will be a few thousand left probably. The acacia fees are absurd, but not high enough to drive most of us out of business. They'd weed out some of the competition, make the market more profitable for larger businesses, but would not essentially change the structure of adult internet... most things would stay the same, only the bottom half would be cut off.
