BMW = Bitch, Moan and Whine.

First it was:

- internet sites killing magaizine/vhs/dvd sells........then
- free sites killing paysite sales......then
- picpost killing free site sales.......then
- TGPs killing picpost sells.......then
- MPGs killing TGP sells........and now
- Tube sites killing etc...etc...


Look, the sales don't get killed, the market and it's delivery just changes.

Fact : The paysite will always sell because they will continue to deliver the niche in bulk! They will continue to deliver the higher quality. They will simply evolve to fit the current delivery method.

The problem that affilates are faced with is that they don't want to change.
You must continue to evolve your delivery method and ability to funnel the surfer to the highest quality in bulk.

If radio and television didn't kill the music and film business then why would tube sites kill porn.

The most extreme conditions would be that tube sites dominated the internet with such a force that sponsors no longer cared about free sites or TGPs because they made so much money thru type-ins from tube sites.
If that ever became the case then tube sites would simply start charging a fee for the sponsors to upload their videos. At that point it would just make sense for affilates to just build tube sites instead of TGPs.

In other words, the market would evolve back to what it originally was where you had traffic and sponsors paid up front for advertizing.

No more will affiliates think about conversion ratio, charge back etc...

Is this really a industry change to be fearing?


Stop complaining and start evolving.
