Anyway, lets see how this will work out
Oh it's gonna be an easy one to brand for sure.

But as you pointed out...it ain't gonna do much for us as affiliates. And in this age of everything is "free" I'm thinking it's biggest effect from the easy branding will mean that surfers will just type "babes.com" when they are searchig for free porn and that makes it easier to find all the pirated free scenes from it.

I would say that if this were pre-piracy explosion times...say 2006 for instance...there was enough fat on the bone that this would have been a multi-million dollar site.

These days? It's a toss-up. That softcore niche isn't as big as hardcore...though the hardcore pie is obviously cut up a lot more.
But nothing is selling the way it SHOULD because of sites just like the ones that Manwin owns (pornhub, keezmovies, etc) So I guess we'll all see what happens.
