Never.

I still think the "Exclusive" thing is totally over rated and mainly used to convince affiliates. In the end our stuff is teens and even if I'm the only one with this set of that teen, on that sofa, it's still teens. There is little twist to make it really exclusive.

Plus the money we made out of the content, it will be a very long time before the paysite gets to that level. And if we had not of sold content would we of had the paysite?

We let members rate the sets with a star system, they don't rate a set any more because it's exclusive. We changed the tour so it featured the best sets, very few exclusive, in fact some have been good sellers http://www.paulmarkhamteens.com/tour/. Conversions climbed when we changed from the system of putting up the Exclusive sets.
