And to the people who have been around awhile who say that they heard cries of doom & gloom since the dawn of the internet with every new way of promoting paysites (ex: newsgroups to tgp to freesites/blogs to video samples etc...) and think this is the same thing are forgetting 1 thing:

All methods above did not give away the full product. If a surfer wanted more he had to pay. Now he watches full video clips and has no need to pay for anything.
+ the surfer has now been trained to expect it all for free. That wasn't the case in 2003. It's totally different. It would be like being the cable company in a town where everyone thinks they should get free basic cable and trying to charge them for it is a scam and joke. That's about where we are now. Some pay, sure. But most laugh, "Pay for porn!? You're kidding, right?" That's what we all did. That's why 1 million people view your video on pornhub before they buy. That's why 5 million people go over your thumb every day on pornhub and you only make one or two sales. Guess what? It'll only get worse.
