look at p2p and torrents.. a few were shut down but someone else just popped up and replaced them..
so, people can either deal with the fact that the business has changed and try to figure out ways to compete or they can find another industry...
even tubes are going to suffer a decline in revenue over time because when 1000 tube sites are all promoting cams and dating, the signups are going to be spread out over all those tube sites...

This is different than p2p and torrents IMO though.
Torrents suck for movie producers, but the quality of product you get on those sites is drastically different than the big screen experience, or even a blu-ray dvd experience.
Movies are coming out today that are breaking all time records for ticket sales......and music industry revenue is at an all time high as well.
The tube sites....as they relate to the porn business....are offering the exact same fare as porn paysites, in terms of quality, quantity, and even ease of use in alot of cases.
A friend of mine was over here the other night, he told me that ever since the tube sites came onto the scene he stopped buying porn.
This is a guy who always had a password to one or two sites at a time as far back as I can remember....and now there's so much free stuff available he doesn't need to pay for anything anymore.
