I guess I think this is all just trying to reinvent the wheel. Sure, it goes without saying. If you have a great product people will buy it no matter what the cost is (within reason). Everyday there are people buying new Ferrari's. I'm not going to buy one. 99% of the population won't be buying one, but they do sell. I would venture to guess that the conversion rate of people who walk onto a Ferrari lot and buy a car is higher than those that walk onto a Honda lot because people looking for Ferrari's know what they are after and are willing to pay for it.

This is all old news and as it pertains to porn, it is nothing different. Look at the different niches. People that are very into fat girls have a harder time finding a good site than guys that are into 19 year old fit, hotties. When the guy that likes the fat girls finds a site he likes he is more likely to buy because the options are fewer and he knows what he wants.

The same can be said for anything else. If you want super high quality pictures and videos there are sites that provide that. If you want a certain niche there are sites that provide that. If you want a certain type of girl (or guy) there are sites that provide that. In the end it is porn. There are only so many ways you can present it to people. So sure, creating a high quality site or something that has an interesting slant on it could prove to convert and hold well, but really we aren't talking about cars or houses or clothes, we are talking about orgasms. People look at porn because they are horny. Some have discerning tastes and will shop around for what they want. Many just want to see a good looking girl nude or having sex. You can choose to sell the Honda to the masses, or you can sell the Ferrari to the few, but it is still just a car and unless you can make if fly, how do you plan on making it so different and so unique that you will be able to get enough people to buy it that it will pay for the cost of producing it?
