Megarotic and others won't kill the business - they will just help redefine it.

Think: A site like that costs money to build, maintain and serve content. So they give some away for free then get you to sign up for a membership for full access. This is not entirely different than pay sites serving up galleries and video clips enticing you to join.

Of course, with tube sites you get a LOT more content - including full clips - free, but in the end they have to make money to stay online.

So unless the law can shut them down, then if you're a pay site owner or program you have a choice: Adapt to the model or (possibly) perish. There are many smart minds in this industry that can come up with ways to work within this model ... some clearly already have.
