I don't see any brilliance at all in this idea. First off...maybe if you had been the first to give shit away then you could have made a few million off of prepaid adspace sold to dating and cam sites.

But that was 2 years ago. And pretty much everybody in the whole fucking world already knows what AFF is and also have seen every cam site out there. And most of them are already members. So it's diminishing returns for dating and cam sites to continue to pay out big money for ads.

Especially when they KNOW that paysites can't and won't sell off of a tube. Trust me on that one, I have a few vids I put on Pornhub and they have about 750,000 views of the vids...and only 3103 clicks to the site and TWO sales.

So you're talking about completely devaluing your work by giving it away for free. And guess what? You're return will be the same: Nothing.

I hope all of you jump off the cliff like lemmings and leave me as the only one left.
Yep!
People need fresh content. They will buy it.
Right now a lot of people are broke. I am sure you get emails from your members that are like" Hey i hate to leave, but I just can't afford it right now"
I honestly believe that when things get better there will be a lot less company's and more mom and pops making money with their websites.

The radio is free but even with it people bought albums. People still want hi def downloads. Large pictures. Well lit, not really shitty small videos on tubes but a lot of the regular buyers just cant afford it right now.

As a shooter I see who hires me and who is buying first hand. I see it picking up and nobody is asking for pornstars getting fucked on a couch in LA. Thats just the reality.

Also I wouldnt shoot for the under 30 market.
