& Bingo - There are a series of coherent, real life indistinguishable images depicting exactly that. Same woman in each, same laundry room down to all the details, all pics 'taken' from different angles...
You don't like her underwear 'No, BLACK panties' Click - She now is wearing black panties. Don't like the laundry room? Change it with a click. Hell, upload a pic of YOUR OWN laundry room - There she is instantly in YOUR OWN house...
& Believe you me - Despite these 4 legged anime abominations we see at the moment... Thats coming. 100% - That's just around the corner - Within a few years it will be that, but video.
My point is, a content store will be obsolete - real soon. You are in your endgame of selling real pics. So make the most of it now while you can - Get as much business as you can NOW - Make as much money as you can NOW. Remove EVERY possible barrier to your potential paying customers, while they still exist.
If you can make it as easy and as simple for someone to pay for your content, then do so - NOW - even if that means some of it gets stolen - Because in a few years... Its over... & its coming - FAST...
Your business model will soon be outdated. Sorry, but like I said - Real Talk.

it was outdated years ago, when tubes came along and the small sites often on a AVG system stopped making sales.
Back then people wanted cheap sets to put on a site to get sales.
Most sites want i suspect exclusive.
I have seen several content stores closing as people cannot makes the sales, and the content they sold was often great.
The truth is that often it is not much more to simply shoot the content yourself. in fact sometimes it is cheaper.
trainwreckcontent.com in fairness seems to selling amateur content at a low price. And for someone setting up, this may be a simpler option. Personally i would offer package deals.
However these days I think the market would be to do exclusive to order or on a limited sale basis. Possibly something very high quality. Shot on very pro cameras with pro lighting and a team of people.
However if you are going to have the ability to make content, then the question is why not just make your own pay site and get money that way.
Selling content has often made me think that if the people selling it do not have the confidence to make a profit for a site, then why would I buy it.
I have bought content, but the problem is you find tube sites and other free sites also have. So unless you just want to give it away free, it makes buying for a pay site pointless.
