yes, of course. and therefore they also depend on the wellbeing of the programs who pay them. and they could make more money if the programs would not be pressured into making their content available for download to receive a better rating.
small example: Germanies biggest paysite pays 51 Euro ($70) per signup for a membership that costs about $15 per month. how can they afford that? because they have tons of exclusive content which cannot be found on any tube site because it was always just offered via streaming from day one on. i am not exactly sure how long the average retention per member is, but it is well above one year.
but this is long term thinking, something many people are not capable of
edit: they have become the biggest porn site ALTHOUGH they offer streaming only.
