Why is it dead?
Simple. 90% of the adult business is RULED by TUBES, CAMS, and DATING.
TUBES now work with sponsors directly, which means:
BIG TUBES <-> SPONSOR (content/cams/dating) <-> BIG TUBES
So the affiliate is left out of the equation.
We affiliates have no more place in this business and nobody is interested in working with us.

I know the point you're making and I could probably link to threads 10 yrs old where I said sponsors should not give out free content as it is the slippery slope.. However in your scenario the tube is the affiliate. There's just less of them. You could call it a B2B transaction, but it always has been anyway really under TOS.
I never wanted free content or hosting. I certainly never wanted people going into members areas and taking content. I wanted content sellers to only sell hardcore to sites who had a members area behind a CC payment page, to charge a premium for it, and to make their normal money selling the softer content to affiliates who couldnt get it free! People instead thought it would be better to focus downstream of that and try to make tgp2 sites and other things doomed to be too little too late.
But it's all water under the bridge of course. We all have to adapt in some way.
