When I complain about torrents, or rapidshare, some people quote me and say: "You are right, those tubes are killing the business".... NOO!!! TUBES NO!!! File Sharing.. Two totally different things.

Look at the rankings for the top 4-5 tube sites. They get a ton more traffic then file sharing sites. The internet noobs find the tube sites first, which have great placement in SE and are often talked about word of mouth and receive a lot of type in traffic. Those are the people who are the most likely to sign up to a porn site. The people who make their way to file sharing sites and get hardcore into that are already past the point of spending money on porn. They are more of savvy surfer. Sure file sharing sites hurt too. But i personally look at them as newsgroups of the late 90s early 2000 where lots of free porn and videos where given out before the tube sites came along. But typically the people who used news groups weren't the noobs but more experienced surfer. The more experienced surfer is not the one that is likely to pay for porn. ( IN MOST CASES NOT ALL).
Not to mention that file sharing sites are known for being full of viruses and you get no preview before you download something. (if there are anything like the bearshare and limewires) not sure how the others work. Noob surfers want to see the preview video and don't want to download shit because they are worried about getting viruses.
