$10 is no longer profitable unless the content is free for the site owner. Shooting 10 scenes, worth signing up for, will cost between $2,000 solo to $20,000 BG. Yes I know people will churn out garbage for less
At $10 a sign-up, taking all the other expenses traffic, servers, equipment, etc. That means the site has to sign up 400 to 4,000. For every 10 videos.
Back in the boom days, 95% of the industry was buying exclusive cheap crap because that's all they could afford. Of the remaining 5% a lot of them were started by people with an in-house content producer.
