In my circle of friends (not inside the industry) there are perhaps 3 people that know how to use torrents... 12 that still trust and use Kazaa, Limewire, etc... and another 150 that just surf and think PornoTube is really nifty... like tubular...
While torrents, limewire, newsgroups, IRC and password forums are hurting the industry they all required you to have a brain. They required protocol... No, not protocol the method of sending and receiving, I mean protocol as in signing up, asking in the right manners, etc... All that mumbo jumbo scares newbs away...
Tubes make things so easy... too easy... just click and watch.. No need to signup and have the man getting your infos...

You are so dead on with this. The other stuff only takes the people who are able and willing to learn to do these things. Tubes can take any 50 year old with a pocket full of credit cards and make him a free porn surfer for life. He has to do nothing to get the porn he wants.
This is really hurting us. Why would anyone sign up for these sites when you know 80% of the stuff is on the tubes plus 80% of 50 other sites?
