Signup Prices

The paysite model needs to be overhauled, if you ask me.

It's insane what some companies offer their customers.
Thousands of gigabyte of content ready for download for only $30 a month.
Sites linked together to networks to combat the (self-inflicted!) drop in sign-ups.

Think of what you are doing, people! A DVD also costs up to $30, and it contains only a few scenes. If the content is nice, people will still buy the DVD (or suck the torrent of it - but that is another topic).

I want to offer a paysite with only 4-6 exclusive, premium quality and fully-downloadable scenes (a couple of GB in size). Those scenes would get replaced with new ones every month and the old scenes would get removed.

Would you think I would get many chargebacks?

The attitude of some people in this industry in the style of "we don't care about filesharing, we just produce new content" is not very far-sighted.
