Exactly.
CTRs at tube sites are very low, and tend to get even lower quickly.
Ratios are often not so bad, but that doesn't mean jack shit because only a small fraction of viewers are actually clicking, compared to the traditional advertising medias like galleries etc. And those who are clicking were probably the ones already interested, if they found that small text link to a paysite buried somewhere inbetween huge dating and cum sites ads.
Tubes can send only maybe like 20% of the traffic to paysites, compared to what say tgp can send, given they have an equal amount of daily unique visitors. Hence, tubes as the main advertising media can only support 20% of what the industry is now (or what's left of it) - and that is if they ALL turned legal all of a sudden, which is not going to happen.
