I find it way easier to find new models now because girls who are interested can much more easily find girls who have already modeled and get referrals.
But I do think there are people who are maybe less likely to buy if they can get a lot of what they are looking for online for free.Comment

Try jerking off to 10 second clips. It gets old fast. No tgps are giving out 30 minute movies for free. They'd have a million dollar bandwidth bill at the end of the month.Originally posted by RogerV10You think that is hurting the porn biz.
Look at any TGP now a days. I can list a few that i go that have 1000s of hours of free porn too look it, that update everyday.
I dont know why ANYONE buys porn nowadays
You either have to be smart enough to use bit torrent/P2P software (probably accounts for about 5% of web surfers) or actually join a paysite if you want to see full videos.
Now if bandwidth ever gets cheap enough to give away 30 minute movies for free, then you know there will be idiots doing it. Their business model will probably be selling adult dating or sex toys, something other than porn videos.Last edited by Rictor; 05-06-2006, 10:26 PM.Comment

Add tight niches to that.. Not mainstream porn per say. I make more money off just by running tops lists with my own ref codes than posting galleries.Originally posted by RictorTry jerking off to 10 second clips. It gets old fast.

Originally posted by SteveLightspeedTopic 1: I admit, I've found myself surfing webshots and myspace looking for sexy pics of hot girls. Lots of cheerleader, upskirt, bikini, and spring break type pics on those sites. Do you think those sites, and others like them, could be drawing attention and sales away from porn sites?
Topic 2: Also, back when I started in 99, it was easy to find models for the web, because the girls didn't use the internet, and didn't think anyone would ever see their pictures. Now, college-age girls know all about the web (at least about myspace), and they know how quickly they will be spotted by friends and family. I find it much harder to recruit hot college girls now that ever.
Opinions?
I can tell you a bigger threat then what you mention.
The faster the internet access gets, the easier for ppl to download porn on torrenwebsites such as piratebay.org (worlds biggest torrentwebsite).I hate israel and everything it stands for.
Bomb the shit out of that country.Comment

I think myspace hurts dating sites more than anything. However many of their advertising clients are dating sites like Passion.com (AFF), Mate1.com, etc. I would love to see the conversion rates for those companies off myspace.
Now THAT would be interesting data! However since Mate1 has been advertising on there for as long as I can remember, it MUST be working for them in some way or another. Either that or some people just like to burn money.Lubna

MySpace is a weird beast. People cram so much shit on their pages that it kills my dual processor with 3 gigs of ram.
Ruper Murdoch buys it out and people still don't get it. It's like passing out free apples with razor blades inside. Imagine all these poor saps that started up their band's marketing with MySpace trying to go out and use the same name on their own domain. Who's going to come up first now?
As far as porn goes, no way in hell, unless you think people are tired of seeing naked girls. As far as fucking with the ability to hire models with any bit of intelligence, DEFINITELY. I've had models start with me then steal shots of mine to post on their myspace pages. Even though we are in a profit share agreement. Amazing.Comment

MySpace is big enough that they would have an ISP type exemption. They don't post the content, they host other people's websites. When someone posts illegal content on a website, which is against the policy of the website, the host is not held responsible unless they don't respond to the authorities. Large websites like MySpace, Facebook, etc., would be allowed the same exemption as Yahoo, Rackspace, etc.Originally posted by RawAlexConsidering that courts have ruled that covered shots of crotches could be considered porn, I think myspace and others are taking a major risk when it comes to 2257 documentation requirements. There is nothing stopping a minor from posting a nude or topless picture, and there is no way to verify the ages of models that appear on the site or the copyright that may exist on an image.Comment

I get a good percentage of my models from MySpace. The funny thing is that they will do more provocative things in their profile pictures than they do for us but somehow they are worried it will get out they are in porn.
Although MySpace is a great tool for recruiting girls, but you are constantly having to retool your approach to it. The biggest problem's the 18-21 year old crowd who never have had a real job before, and are total flakes regardless of how much you pay them.
The 21-25 crowd seem to be more responsible, serious, and know it's easy money. They are not worried about the exposure, know the value of easy money, and are over their captain of the cheerleaders phase.

Very true.Originally posted by SteveLightspeedI actually think its easier to recruit at the welfare office than at the mall or college. I think there is 1 in 10,000 girls that will pose nude on the net, and even then, only when she needs the money. Finding THAT GIRL on THAT DAY at random is like catching lightning in a bottle.
The hard thing is those easy girls are not always on the web. Those who are seem to be college girls, who are worried about porn ruining their life because they still have the pipedream that when they get their degree, the next day they move into their 300K house, and Porsche in the driveway dillusion.

As far as recruiting models on myspace, you'd have better luck on rating sites that offer "salutes" to prove that you're real. 80% of the profiles on myspace are fake. I find profiles with pics of myself or friends on them almost DAILY.
