Thats what your target traffic is becoming .... thats the point ... i insist .... Yesterday i would had paid for the scene i found on the major tube ....
I receive weekly mails from RK, BBO, Brazzers, Twistys ( Actually they don't send them that regularily, see, i'm not making this up, Shap can tell what i'm saying is true, they don't send emails to ex members that regularily, i could even put a screenshot of the mailings ) to joining back with special offers, why do you think i receive them?
Because i used to pay for those memberships ................................. Yesterday i was horny, found a scene from an actress similar to my ex-gf, i'm a perverted bastard and like touching myself thinking is her with another dude, when i was about to buy it thought: "Let me see if i can find it at xvideos", in 10 seconds i was watching it .........
Would i had paid if it was not there? surely, i wouldn't had even look in two or three tubes for just 5 bucks of a trial to see the scene, would had taken me more time, but i guess others might even take a look at a couple before buying .... But for me was quicker search it on a major tube than paying 3/5 trial bucks to watching the scene :P
So ... i was a paying customer who does not pay anymore .... I know plenty of guys like me .... off course there are people paying, if not there wouldn't be paysites, not if you say there are not people who used to pay not paying anymore, you are lieing as a simple fact that i and at least other 3 friends of mine don't pay anymore when we used to ( My other friends are not webmasters and have no clue about GFY, manwin, etc, they are just surfers who actually still visit the hun but off course finish their tour at major tubes ..... )
As a side note, about how the small niche sites work, off course you are right about the niche things and how they develop scripts, its even fun to see how members actually fund their productions ..... that makes it really interactive, thats great, but how much time do you think major niche targeted tubes will take to appear ;) And they would send DCMA, they would be taken down, and two days later appear again, FRESH content .... And with niche sites would be easier, as they don't have massive productions, so the same uploader would upload it again with another account, one time and another ....
And let me give you a simple example, i'm right now entering the youjizz which is recently mentioned for its sue from Private ( btw, all my respects for Private owner, hope he has the balls not to just settle and take the fucker down ), i'm sure i will find there at least one scene of each of the major networks which was released in the last week ( I will easily know it as i push them and i can easily remember their last week scenes ) :
youjizz.com : I found two parts of the most recent fuckteamfive update, the one that features diamond foxx and two other not that known pornstars, two parts of 5/6 minutes each, where i could see almost all action, off course, i'm talking only about LAST UPDATE OF SITE, i was amazed of seeing how many full length movies of bbo, brazzers, etc where there ..........
ok, honestly, i'm too tired to keep the search to make a point that is so clear, moreover with someone who as you just claimed are in bed with tubes so you better know this than no one ... you probably uploaded one of those infringement videos, anyway, tubes are here and are making surfers that used to pay not paying anymore, some will remain off course, the question is, would those one that remain be enough for companies afford to make HQ competitive content? ok, they will fall one after the other till only those that can afford it keep up, then, won't their members still get bored at the end? its no secret that not even major sites with regular 3 days updates can rebill more than 3 months average?
Keep defending tubes .... its your job after all and from what you live for what you said, but don't pretend we are all stupid and don't see what is happening and were we are going .... You off course would be benefited from that direction, now almost all sort of affiliates, small non-niche companies, Non tube site owners, content producers, etc will keep going down while you do better
I honestly admire how people like you have the face to defend such things and not even feel guilty, sadly i'm a guilty guy with concience, if not, you have no idea how easy would be for me start spidering all tubes out there, build a custom flash player which would send fake UserAgent and verifications codes to even embed their movies without using their player, etc .....
I'm not familiar with Private owner attitude, i started doing this when online was already taking over offline porn, but hope he has the balls like flint has so he takes this like something personal and rapes the asshole of youjizz owner as its was he deserves ... Him and all the uploaders supporting the site ..... ( And yeah, from were i come from, i know a lot of very known warez/leecher guys .... then, i respected their work, now that i faced both sides of the game, i think they should be fucked up too .... )
