I am not going to mention any sites by name or anything like that here. But as a Rep for a few programs, I can see the stats of people who run some of these tube sites everyone is freaking about, and with some of them, the sales ratios are better than any tgp I have seen. And I am not just saying this, I see it with my own two eyes. They ARE buying the porn, but these are the ones that would buy it anyway I think. The freeloaders are NOT going to pay for it whether it is a tube site, a tgp or hijacking password files and getting into it that way.... they just aren't going to pay for it at ALL.

Please don't ask me to post urls of this, I can't do it out of respect for privacy, I'll just tell you that I have plenty of tube site owners that do extremely well with the sales ratios on these sites.

NOW, having said that, the ones that post up full movies and such, and the full music tracks and so on, they have always been there, to some degree, and will always be there, and of course it hurts us to a degree, but I just don't see them as being a deal breaker right now like the economy is.. the numbers I am looking at just don't support that idea.
