I won't say who it was because I think they are decent people but this confirmed it for me that some people don't realize how screwed they are getting by these tubes. Someone posted about making something like $33,000 over the course of many years from one tube. The problem? They were on the first page for the channels with millions and millions of views. $33,000 isn't a lot of money when less than a decade ago comparable exposure would have made at least $300,000 if not $3 million. I made over $30,000 a year simply by submitting one stinking avs site per week to one avs with no other promotion. And that was using sponsor content.
I know man....but how the fuck do you survive?
Tubes have decimated the industry.
People dont shoot anymore, there is no new content to use to create traffic, and the sales slow down, so nobody creates new sites....so nobody shoots , just a vicious circle...honestly the only reason people make any money it seems is that so many have left.
Go to xbiz and go read the Fabian interview with Robbie...make your head spin.

The genie is out of the bottle...what can you do?

We need smart people and for somebody nobody can come up with a solution...why can't they ?
