Again I agree with you if it's throw away bought in content, like www.bargainbasementcontent.com. But if it's bought in new stuff like www.adultczechcontent.com and matches what he joined for it's just porn. Good or bad.
And yes again I agree if the membership involves a membership to another site then that is part of the deal. So long as it's close to the original. |
It's all relative. The idea of "special" is in the eyes of the viewer... and there's most surely never been a definition of a "porn star". Any girl who's been in a single scene considers herself a "star." There's a few of the no name sologirls sites that blow the doors off of any named porn stars site. Plenty of softcore and non nude as well.
It goes to the expectation of members as to the content inside.... and value. But continuing to devalue content (from oversaturation) will be one of the things that will eliminate the profit in the industry... or to an extent move it to other sectors and reliance on other methods for cash flow.
The running joke in the adult DVD business is the only people making money are the replication companies. We'll be saying the same thing about hosting and software providers soon, at least as the direction of adult online progresses.
One thing is for sure, the end customer is in a great position for an amazing value regardless. Consider the average porn site membership is approximately the same price as a single adult DVD.... which on average has approximately 6 scenes. Compare that to the average paysite that has between 20-1000+ scenes over their network. Factor in the increasing size and quality of downloadable scenes, which can rival DVD. Which one is a better deal?
