How about all the programs that have now or are making their own tube site? You would be surprised. How many sponsor's here would turn down a link on Pornhub if he offered to you for free?
Choker, my business model is to produce high-end "elite" content that make my clients happy and keep their members happy. People hire me because of my work ethic, my skills and my ability to deliver. That my friend...is my business model. If a company wants to use xsales, that's their business model - not mine. Doing business with a company that uses xsales is far different then doing business with a company that uses stolen content for their financial gain. When was the last time you laid down a few hundred thousand dollars for content only to have it stolen and used for free by a tube site? When that happens to you - get back to me ok? Because only then will you understand what all producers in our industry are going thru. It's not surprising that you would be here honking your horn - you sell traffic to tubes. You are in bed with them, making money with them...while they steal content from legit producers all over the world. Frankly, you are no better then hosting companies who sleep with them.

Years ago being a really good photographer was a elite group. Nowadays anyone can be a great photographer.
That's like saying that just because you have photoshop, you can be an amazing web designer. Or just because you have guitar, you can be the next Eddie Van Halen. There will always be companies out there willing to pay more for an elite product. That is the niche that I fill. I could lower my prices and shoot anything & everything but why should I when that's what everyone else is doing?

You are the reason for your demise, not tube sites. And don't come back with the "things are great for me shit". If they were you wouldn't be here attacking others and blaming them for your decline.
I don't think photographers (content producers) are going anywhere. We are the backbone of the industry. Without content, you wouldn't have a fucking job. It's the content that allows you to thrive. If we die, the industry dies. You and I need each other. I produce the content, you send the traffic, everybody makes money.

The only people I'm attacking are nit-wits who think it's ok to steal content that people like me spend our time & money producing. If you don't understand that - you really have some issues brotha'. By business is down - just like everyone else's. But you don't see me doing illegal, unethical and immoral things do you?

So what exactly is your point Choker? That since the industry is down, it's ok to steal content if that's what it takes to keep your business running? And all the producers should lower their prices so the tubes will buy it instead of stealing it? WTF???
