Producing that level of content takes money or/and a lot of skills. The problem is few had either. They had a kick ass digital camera, minimal lighting skills, a naked girl and little else.

Comparing traffic that clicks a banner and goes to one site as a guide for how well Tubes work is covering up the truth or dumb. It is as you and others say, down to the number of page views it takes to get one to click a banner that really matters.

If, for instance, 1-300 come to your tour and 10 viewed the movie then 1 clicked the banner. The ratio is 1-3,000. If it was 100 viewed to 1 clicked, the real ratio is 1-30,000. So 29,999 got a free video and never paid. The more you feed the beast the bigger it grows. Spot on signupdamnit.
