None of them pay models or pay to produce the content that they give away for free.
Maybe as many as 95% earning off the "porn traffic" model. don't spend a penny to produce the content they must have. To make a dime.

Affiliates would still be getting their revshare from that and probably making more overall as would program owners
There's nothing more micro than free.

OK let's go with your idea. 30 days for how much?

Let's say $10.

Now figure all other costs are fixed, so the site now needs a much larger chunk of the $10 or 3xmore sign ups.

$10 a month and all the risks associated with paying or free?

The problem isn't only that free is free. It's better than paying for it. Unless you absolutely can't have anything but HD of a particular porn site and no one has pirated it.
