I think you need to expand that to any site that works hard to land their niche well. Bondage, foot fetish, masturbation(which everyone here thinks is too vanilla but works for me), anything really. Revshare works if the price is right for the customer and the site delivers consistently.
I have sites that go back to 1997 and some customers who have stayed re-billing since then. Now of course they have had to update their CC info with me, and most of those long term were at the annual membership rate of between $59-$99. But not all, some have paid monthly for 5, 6 or 7 years at $30 per. I have affiliates that have made $900 plus per member, but you need trust and patience. Two things I understand aren't easy in this biz.
PPS has its place but it is the model that will suffer the most as we go forward. I don't think it will disappear. At the rate I retain I can do a decent PPS, but the risk for me is higher so I avoid it if possible.
