If you implement some kind of CC verification why can't it be used by tubes as well ?
So many dreamers and it took 15 posts for someone to come up with the reason the idea would fail if we were legislated to put all porn behind a CC verification and blocks those who did not comply. If in the dream world of anti Tubes legislation did happen, the Tubes would charge $1 for a life times membership.

Here's why porn tubes are killing this industry.

1. The customers prefer them to what paid porn offers.
2. They make a profit.

So the real solution is simple and something we can control. Yes we have to adapt or die.

1. Produces sites and memberships at a price the customers will pay for.
Most sites are not what the customer wants for a 30 day recurring membership. If this were not true they wouldn't be choosing Tubes over paysites.

2. Attack the ways Tubes are making a profit.
By giving away or reducing the price of live web cam and dating sites inside the members area. The sponsor and affiliates has already earned from the member and does not need to earn from the upsell. They needs to take away the customers from Tube sites.

Will my solutions mean people may earn less in the short term? Yes, but short term thinking is what got us into this mess.

In the years Tubes have been taking members can anyone seriously say what paysites have done to adapt to the challenge?
