The short answer is there is not much.

For a more detailed answer on the revenue and content...

I had 250 affiliates sign up when the beta was announced with one site, xGape, about a year ago. At one point xGape was getting around 10 signups a day.

Shortly after the beta launch, I decided I was leaving the industry.

That's when I neglected StudioCash, and did not pursue the beta phase or a full launch of the program any further, just letting it sit there and collect dust.

I let my NATS license expire, and for 5 of the last 6 months or so, no new joins have been coming through.

Then I let my hosting expire as well, so all the sites were offline for a month, and that screwed up some of the SE placements as well.

At one point xGape and xCrib were getting 4-5 signups a day from SE traffic, xGape with a #1 ranking for "anal porn" on yahoo, and xCrib a #1 ranking for "Interracial Porn".

All the current stats of the sites can be viewed by going to "domain/stats" (example: http://www.xgape.com/stats/ )

There is no member base... Currently there are 18 active members, all pretty much recurring from the beta phase about a year ago.

I had content for 3 sites: xgape, xcrib, and xfestivals.

xFestivals has softcore content with complete 2257 that is transferrable.

xGape and xCrib have content from 3 years ago when I started creating the program, which is not transferable. None of the other sites had content yet.

I will show the new owner where to get the same content (but newer), and I will put you in touch with the person who took my screenshots you see on the current sites, so your presentation will look the same as it does now.

My content was non exclusive, but because of the way It was presented on the sites and the quality of the screenshots, everyone assumed it was exclusive.

If webmasters can't tell between exclusive and non exclusive, I doubt surfers can. It's all about the presentation.

You can launch each site with 20 scenes per site. It would cost you $1,000 per 20 video scenes if you wanted to get the same content I had. If you furnished the remaining 9 sites with 20 scenes of video content per site, it would cost you a total of $9,000.

The story of StudioCash is a program that was never launched, and it's potential never realized. The program is ready for a full launch right now. All the assets are in place. The only thing it will need is content.
