and no doubt interracial.com bought some stuff off him exactly because they know affiliates would be impressed and start promoting - once that is done there's no reason for them to keep spending the $2,900 per scene cuz they've already hooked the affiliates into believing. order 10 scenes of the good stuff to impress then go get 100 DVD's for 100-200 dollars a pop and nobody is the wiser. maybe they found a much cheaper shooter to shoot exclusives for them cheaper. there are ways to cut corners where you can sell for less $2,900 and make a modest profit - get rid of the location cost, the makeup cost, shoot multiple scenes in a day, use male talent that works for 200 bucks rather than 500 dollars etc
it's an expensive proposition to run exclusive content sites - 4 shoots a month x $2-3,000 each - the great programs like NastyDollars, Bangbros, FTVGirls, Twistys, DDGirls, etc do it week in week out, month in month out, year in year out.

The program owner who snaps me up will see I am a good investment. I am going to promote the hell out of the site, the conversions will be better, the retention will be better, more affilates will sign up to promote the sites.
I have spent some time on various surfer forums and even though my scenes account for a small percentage of the number of scenes on those sites it is my scenes that are being discussed.
Mr Marcus even complained to me one time about how they are talking about my scenes on his website.
Perhaps people are getting fucking sick of all the badly shot content. I just watched a video of Amy Reid and the "director" did not even have the brains to have her tits hanging out while she was giving the blowjob.
Imagine paying $2k for a girl with the best tits in the history of planet earth and not having them exposed and flopping around during the entire tease and blowjob scene. Content like that is TOTAL SHIT and I consider it a waste of money. Pay a little more money and get something good.
I could make a hell of a lot more money if I went the mass-produced route but I got into content production because I love the feedback I get from people who enjoy my work. I highly doubt anyone will ever remember that Amy Reid scene that other guy shot except for the fact the "director" managed to fuck up a scene with an extremely hot girl.
