For those that surf the other big tube sites, how many movies are being added on a daily basis? Any? Are they just recycled?

Either way, I'd have to assume they are making some profit.
As far as I know RedTube.com is just planned as a big bubble to blow up and sell to some idiot one day. The investors are located in Vienna. I think they're trying to sell it since ~ 6 months, but haven't found a buyer to this date (rumors).

And smaller tubes are paying a higher price per mbps too, as they can't buy that much in bulk either....
