I just like to argue random bs because that's how I learn
In truth Mike no one but the big card processors know if there's more money spent on online porn today than in 2007/8. All we have is indicators.

Lots of good sites are suffering, not just the poor sites as ST claims. The problem is few will come onto a board and publicly announce it, it's all show. Tell people you're doing great and affiliates send traffic. Tell them you're doing bad and they don't.

Pimproll are trying to make money by giving away porn they paid for, to sell the traffic it generates. The prime porn domain of porn.com is now a Tube site. Because a Tube site makes more money that a paysite? Of course. Why is the question.

ST's answer is something that always happens, the weak get cut out. Now we are seeing the PR turning to running a Tube site. Were they one of the weak? Were those whooping over the returns on their traffic to that site strong or weak?
