I personally like, and I know lots of people who also do, homemade porn. The more homemade the better. Camera on a tripod, real couples fucking, real sex. It doesn't matter to me if it's shitty footage on a cell phone (which is often the best) or its some shit cam picked up at Best Buy, it's ALWAYS going to boil down to a hot girl or hot sex. To go a step further, I hardly ever even look at videos anyway. I'm a PHOTO porn consumer above all and only yank to videos when I find a nice amateur movie of a hot girl that fits my need at that time.
Yes, there are guys who do crave the latest video formats and the largest photos, but I don't think the general public cares when they have a cock in their hand and want to wack off. There are guys who will join the HD and very high quality sites, and there will always be guys, like me, who will take anything they can get so long as it's real and not phony LA crap with porn stars.
To date my best selling, top converting, top retaining site has the worst content I have ever shot on it. Going on 5 years old, it STILL converts a under 1:400 and the average member stays for at least 3 - 5 months. Yes, still today. Nothing is of high quality on this site but it fits the niche that it's in, is exclusive and it updates on time. Never once has a member asked when we were going to start shooting in HD. I can't argue with the numbers, though I know my case is not the same as yours.
I'm just saying there are all kinds of porn consumers out there who are more than happy to watch anything they can get their hands on so long as it GETS THEM OFF!!! We can't assume that just because technology is going in one direction that all of our consumers will too. It's all about getting off to hot girls. Hell, they don't even have to be hot to you or me so long as they are hot to that consumer.
