BS - free is better for only one reason, it's FREE. good luck competing with FREE. you can improve the customer experience all you want, only a very small % will choose to pay over FREE.
Let's say there were two hamburger restaurants side by side, they both made identical quality hamburgers, one shop charged $3.99 for a hamburger, the other was giving them away for FREE - guess how many customers the guy who makes you pay would have. Your theory is that if you improve the customer experience then the customer will pay - so the one hamburger shop owner whose business is dying takes your advice, he brainstorms on how to make his hamburger shop better than the free one - adds new condiments, nicer bathrooms, lowers his price or adds some more value to what he is charging for i.e. refillable soft drinks/coffee
95% of people are still gonna go get the free hot dog.
piracy is killing the porn industry - if you don't arrest and put away the killer the industry will continue to be murdered one by one.
they've already murdered you - you can keep trying to tell people you've made all the money you need, that you're not in good health to shoot anyway etc - Paul if your business was still viable and profitable you'd hire a studio manager, a photographer, to shoot for you and still be selling fresh newly produced content to webmasters and magazines.
