1. Processing Rules Changed.

3. Credit Card Limits Dropped, Card Closed, People Bankrupt.
4. Flood of Free Porn.
5. Lack of Updates, Original Content, Innovation.
6. Failure to Lock Down Content.
7. Most People Never Knew How to SELL in the First Place.
8. Internet Users are Aging, and Becoming Desensitized to Same Ole Tricks.
9. Competition for Their Attention & Online Time with Social Networks.
10. Apathy & Laziness. Being a BRO is no longer enough to make money online...
Either do something about your situation, or move on to your paper hat. This is not a job match. The genie is out of the bottle, cat out of the bag, or whatever other cliche you'd like to use. Either evolve, or die.

I'll give some %'s of IMO how each of the above affected everyone:
Picture and Membership sites:
1. (mainly affected the cross sale junkies) Processing Rules Changed.
2. (really can be combined with #3) The Global Economy.
3. (60% - main problem, kills new sales and especially rebills) Credit Card Limits Dropped, Card Closed, People Bankrupt.
4. (35%) Flood of Free Porn.
5. (5%) Lack of Updates, Original Content, Innovation.
6. (goes hand and hand with #4) Failure to Lock Down Content.
7. (not a cause but a result) Most People Never Knew How to SELL in the First Place.
8. (not really relivent - but you can add here the younger generation is more inclined to look for free porn than the older users and combine that with #4) Internet Users are Aging, and Becoming Desensitized to Same Ole Tricks.
9. (less than 1%) Competition for Their Attention & Online Time with Social Networks.
10. (not a cause but a result) Apathy & Laziness. Being a BRO is no longer enough to make money online...

for everyone like him you know there is 10000s of people like that every day finding out about a tube site for the first time and saying the same thing.
But the biggest problem is that the majority of the people who do want to pay can't and are getting declined and rebills are getting killed not because they are cancelling but because of insufficient funds.
