Actually this is a great deal like TGP was when it started.
Before TGPs surfers were lucky to get 20-25 pictures for free, and most got caught up in some circle jerk, or console hell, a dozen times for every free site they found, and about 80% of what was free was from the same Busty Babes CD from Zmaster, by the time they landed on a paysite tour they were begging to buy just to find some real porn.
Sign up ratios dropped like a stone when TGP was giving away hundreds of new pictures a day. It got much much worse as "The Rules" for getting listed got more and more surfer friendly.
Threads like this were written, a lot of people said cut it off, it is hurting the industry, it will ruin sales, others said adapt. The industry adapted, sales got worse.
There are a lot of people in this thread saying adapt. Those that do not learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.
