OK Dave let me explain supply and demand in simple terms.

If you have 100 customers, that can get the same or similar product from 10 suppliers, that's 10 per supplier.

If you have 20 who can only get it from 1 supplier, that's 20 for the 1.

Now mix into it the free aspect.

If 9 suppliers are vigilant to keep their content off the free sites and 1 doesn't care. Then a huge hole appears and the 100 customers have the option of getting t all for free.

He get's a lot of traffic for a little while and it all looks good.

Until others go the free route nd 1 hole turns into 2 and then 3 and before you know it sales are shit. because the people giving it away for free are running the ship.

Multiply it to the level of most niches and styles in online porn.

If you have a unique product, that's not given away for free you have a far better chance of getting the sale.

And the guys giving it away for free, end up selling traffic for peanuts.

Very simple so you could grasp the law of supply and demand.
