One thing noone seems to consider...
Who says that all surfers on the big tube sites would have bought porn online were it nowhere to be found for free?
I keep wondering why people think that... It goes the same with movies or music... I am very very sure that a LOT of people out there are downloading music or movies that they would have never ever bought a CD from before... obviously people also d/l stuff they would have bought... but why are we so sure thats the vast majority?
Noone seems to consider how much money we are talking about if all those people watching porn for free were actually to buy it, we would ALL be billionaires!! And if that were the case, why are we not already anyway considering tubes are only 2-3 years old?! The web has not grown THAT much in those years, we should have had millions of paying new members DAILY if these assumptions were all true...
Sure, some people are nolonger buying that would have bought before.. on the other hand, way more people are exposed to the brands out there because of the tubes, and if the quality were very good on the other paysites would this not cause a branding effect of some sort?
Last time I checked, watching series on tv is free... why do people buy tons of DVDs all of a sudden of all these series? Why does apple sell tons of movies and series on itunes? I seem to be missing something...
Things to think about....
