And given a CHOICE, side by side of something to buy...I found over the years that the overwhelming majority went for the hardcore stuff.
Yes, we had so many surfers from 1997 to around 2007/2008 (when the mass exodus from TGP to tube/torrent/fileshare in porn began) that we were still able to make a few thousand dollars a month on softcore.

So "yes" all sales are important.

All I was ever saying was in response to the post that implied that a nice picture of a hot girl in lingerie would make significant sales.
In my experience that ONE picture wouldn't make one sale. Not one dollar.

Put it in context in a series of pics with her stripping down and let the viewer know there is a corresponding video of that girl doing some passionate masturbation..and it has the potential to make a "softcore" sale.
