Yep, I think TGPs survived because most of them are text only (or are hosting small thumbs) so the hosting cost is relatively low compared to the number of visitors. Also they are just giving away galleries, not full movies.
Last I heard they still hadn't started profiting from YouTube yet.
I think that eventually there will be some porn tube sites that survive and thrive, but they will evolve into things that host smaller movies and have more advertising. The ones that are giving away full movies will have a hard time digging themselves out of the hosting bills they will rack up. You can't give someone hours and hours of free movies and then expect them to still spend money. It would be like letting someone go into blockbuster and take 10 free movies a day then you expect them to still rent or buy one.
