I'm getting the attention of literally millions of views a day. I have had a lot of traffic for quite awhile. I know what traffic wants, I see the patterns, I understand it. I can't take a picture to save my life and I can't stand being around the "talent", but I know traffic.

See, you make a big deal of protecting _YOUR_ content. As if taking the content away from people who are never going to pay for your content anyways is worth making things difficult for people that will or are paying. Bottom line is you are taking a hit on retention, no doubt about it.

Let's be realistic for a second here. Nobody is running around the net at a frantic pace to get ahold of the latest Dixie Dash (Or whatever her name is) content, bumping in to a lack of it on torrents and tubes and running off to buy a membership because they've just got to have it. That might be true of someone like Jordan Capri, but I'm afraid it isn't true (at least yet) of any of your models. If you're the next Steve Lightspeed remains to be seen but at this point you're not exactly the next big thing on the Internet.

I wouldn't be surprised if by properly watermarking and seeding your own content plus ripping out DRM you doubled your internal sales. I'm not kidding about that either. If making sure free loaders abso-smurfly don't get to see your precious, precious content is more imporant to you than your bottom line then I guess you're on the right track.
