I'm starting to think for selling porn online as most know it, this is true.
The problem isn't coming up with an original idea. It's coming up with one that has wide appeal and will make money.
Leaving out Dating and Cams, which will both suffer from the free model. What's left to try?
Live 24/7 sex shows will appeal if done right. The problem is doing it right will cost a lot and the ROI is unlikely to make it work.
Moving up to a far higher quality of porn will work. Not just the Met-Art level other levels as well where the performers really connect with the viewers. Then spending a lot of money to keep it off piracy sites and creating sample videos that really capture a surfers imagination and generate the desire to get more of this and
only this porn. That will work for a few. The problem is there are very few who can produce that kind of porn. Samples of this are most evident in the "Gonzo" niche. Sadly characters like Buttman, Ed Powers, Ben Dover are few and far between.
Met-Art style appeals to some, still a limited market. Every site that copies them will be sharing their traffic. A little will be created but not to the ratio to support a lot of sites.
Introducing real passion into a scene is probably the easiest route. Watch the movie
No Strings Attached, some of the HBO series and copy the love scenes and introduce real passion. The style of sex most scenes have today is easy cheap and done to death. It's not that it doesn't sell, it does. But with it being all over the Tubes and piracy sites and countless paysites, the demand to an individual site is small and has to again fall back on the huge numbers of traffic to get a sale.
