They have Zangos, torrents, and tube sites to get traffic from. Much in the same way some programs were totally addicted to spam traffic, some have beecome addicted to web2.0 traffic.
What many of them are not seeing (or not caring about at this point) is how these sites are accellerating the decline of the adult business. The 1 in 200 business that in 2 years turned into a 1 in 2000 business and is rapidly heading to a 1 in 20,000 business. They are making the mistake of thinking they can support sites that give all of the product away and somehow make it up in volume.
Instead, they are killing demand for their products, and the only people left laughing are the dating, cam, and toy sites who's business doesn't change because their content can't be given away.
For them, WM are not the focus of thier business anymore.

What is the difference in WM and affiliates to xtube I really do not get this, I own the site but I have to join my affiliate program and pay myself 1% just to participate? I really do not get this?
Are they really saying they will not allow “us” to send them clips from our site in exchange for a return link, this is kind of what is sounds like of where they are going with this to me.
I do agree this is not a good thing but for different reasons too, I work with allot of gay content and all the LL’s ect are about dead as people just do not care about image content when they can get vids for free. Now as this tubes stuff goes one we will see longer and longer vids being offered for free just to get more attention for programs. This will soon devalue video content in the same way we have already done with pics. What the hell are we going to have to sell after that, not sure I want to sell sex toys
How can they say (WM are not the focus of thier business anymore) where do they think these videos come from?
I am just really lost with this stuff and do not see why more people are not really pissed off it what I think is going on is really true. BTW this vote is a joke, what WM’s want to be banned I guess the ones that do not use it in the first place hu?
