Many surfers don't really care for live shows though. We all talk about cams and such as being the solution to piracy but that's not fully true because of this. What percentage of surfers really want those things over traditional porn or are prepared to pay a premium for them? I'd be surprised if the number even approaches 20%. Believe it or not a certain percentage might even be turned off by the concept. Live content might be a way to reduce the effect of piracy but that doesn't mean it will still generate near the same revenue or have the same customer base.
My experiences show me that the average porn surfer is different than the cam/live show seeking surfer. The two don't seem to cross very well even when within the same niche. Conversions and CTR seems much better with cams when sticking to cam seeking traffic. If I put up cams to general porn seeking surfers the results seem quite dismal in comparison.
