Redtube is a good example of a guy trying to change his model from stolen content to sponsor content because he wants to make money and that's likely what many will do.
Here once again I pose this question it keeps getting ignored but if money is the motivator.Then it really has to be looked at. Surfers get used to 20 min scenes for free, do you think he will then be happy with 2 min clips and having to buy a membership to see more or will he just look for the next tube site no one made a deal with yet?
