About the only point I don't agree with in the first post is the cost of bandwidth. Even back in 2000 I was paying somewhere between $1-$1.50 a gig so even hun listings were profitable. Of course it's now a lot cheaper still.

The only other point is don't underestimate the shit loads of people willing to work for next to nothing. Even mainstream is full of them when you check out the profit margins many ebayers work to and porn attracts them like moths to a flame. They'll still carry on pumping out galleries for next to nothing and earning next to nothing. That's the biggest difference - in the past they would have been able to make a little more than next to nothing with a minimal outlay. That's rapidly changing though.
