OK, how about a graph of the last time that thehun.net or worldsex.com changed their design or innovated in any way since 1997. The design hasnt changed in over 10 years. So they change basically NOTHING in 10 years and now people are now wondering why customers are interested in going to a more user friendly site? And as for the piracy argument - all those tgps used to post ripped content, many still do. People were saying the same thing about tgps back in 2000 (zomg tgps is giving away free content and destroying my pic post, halp)

Also, notice the traffic was trending down BEFORE the tube sites even existed? I think people were discovering other sources: forums, torrents, direct downloads etc.

Also 2, paysites have a lifecycle- they can start off wildly popular then traffic dies away naturally over time... look at bangbus from a few years back.
