Which is why we constantly produce the same "new scene" all the time.

Changing the sofa and the plastic doll many call models, isn't really making that much difference to the vast number of porn surfers.

Even in your greatest best most profitable time you were unable to persuade 99% of the people looking at your galleries.

1-100 of those clicking on a link was considered good by most, except the micro niches.

The newest scene is just the one never seen before, it could be 10 years old it could be 10 days old. If the you saw the 10 day old one yesterday, it's an old scene. If you had never seen the 10 year old one, it's a new scene.

Forgetting the HD effect.

Why don't people admit 99.9% of surfers aren't impressed enough in the product to buy it. They don't care if Robbie protects his product, because the next guy doesn't.

Come on Robbie tell us your conversion figures on views of a sample > clicks > sales.

You know if you tell us it 1-10 we will call bullshit and you know if you say 1-100 we will call bullshit and I'll tell you 99% weren't impressed enough to buy.

Not your fault, it's the fault of all those that thought traffic was king. The answer to nearly every sales problem was usually "You need more traffic." Rarely was it "Create something good if you want good sales."

When 99% were saying no, the answer was get another 100. Never get a better product and convert 1 of the 99. That was a stupid idea.

Welcome to 2011. When 999 don't spend to everyone who does.
