Let's be honest most sign up and cancell 5 minutes later ! They then download the sites entire content onto their hard drive... stay away for 2-3 months then come back and repeat...
The question is what does the sponsor do to keep their members... we are about to add a load of value added stuff for the surfer... also webcam shows are good as you just cant download that...
Anyways if anyone wants to give us a spin feel free

No you are very right. To top it off many sites have trials like I said. Not even limited trials either but full on access to every piece of content trials. They can join for 2.99 or whatever. Cancel 5 minutes later. Then rip the entire site with the 10-15mbps connection. If they like the material they will come back in several months via a type in or bookmark - sign up for a new trial and then rip the new stuff.
Why pay 24.99 when you can rip a whole site for 2.99? Then who in their right mind will sit around and wait for 4 updates a month for an additional 5 bucks a week, when they can go rip some other sites and just come back in 4 months to rip your 16 latest updates to add to what they already have, assuming they like it and want it?
This really is another case for streaming if one even thinks about it.
Oh as for a minimum of 40% retention on rebills, that is doing pretty damn well. I am fairly happy to see most sites that pull 30% nowadays.
