Should I switch to exclusive content?

Guys,

Basically I've been running my paysite for around a year now and its working out pretty well. Recently I've reached a bit of a dead end and don't seem to be able to grow it any further.

Its a video site consisting of half downloadable vids from providers like adultcontent.ca, matrix, cloud 9 etc. And half streaming vids from AEBN, HostedContent, SOBE Girls, Bubblegirls, Viv Thomas, UK Amateurs etc.

Problem is that as I pay for the plugins by bandwidth the content cost are just going up in parallel to the number of users who join the site, so my profit margin never increase!

I am currently burning around $3k on content a month and I figure that if I switched this into having exclusive vids made I would see better signups, longer retention and lower overheads = higher profit margin.

Just wanted to tap some ideas.

Cheers.

Gary
