When will you guys realize that these KaZaA type programs do not affect the industry as far as site memberships go ...
The average KaZaA user knows enough about the internet to get whatever he wants for free ... and chances are knew way before KaZaA ... KaZaA just made it easier for him ...
KaZaA users use it because it is FREE ... you really think they are going to PAY to join a site ??? Not in this lifetime ... they are freeloaders ... and ALWAYS will be !!!
The people who join your sites, for the most part don't want the hassles of finding a movie download, and then trying to download it at maybe 0.5 k/s if you are lucky ... they realize that for a nominal monthly fee, they can have access to TONS of good stuff ... RIGHT NOW ... without the wait ...
And there are plenty of the secont type of people out there ... most of the guys who join paysites are educated, and realize the value and convenience of a GOOD paysite membership ...
Food for thought for all paysite owners ... don't treat all your surfers like 18 year old kids with their cock in there hands ...
Maybe part of why you are not converting the way you'd like to be, is that you have got incorrect preconceived notions on the type of person who becomes a member of your site ??? Knowing the profile of your target audience is a very important step in a sucessful site ...
Sites that "KNOW" their members ... (chat, email, ICQ, etc) usually convert very well ...
