a cartel is a good idea
producers and creative people in all businesses are always the ones last in line to feed at the trough. in this business there's a double whammy - more than half the adult content on the Web is stolen. So when somebody is willing to buy content it's hard not to love them just for being decent people even if they're not really paying what I think they should.
since this thread is pretty much people involved in the content business. What markup do you think is reasonable for exclusive content? 25%? 50%? 75%? 100%? more?
