it's a nice story. The sites are sweet. it's a nice piece of work, that does remind us all of the period between 1998 and 2003.
but, it's a very specialized business model, with a lot of specific conditions (country of origin, content accquisition, costs profile, traffic costs, etc) that are not easily met.
I think you folks saying this is evidence that "there IS money in porn" are over-reacting, without placing his work in context.
I'm just pointing out that it's not in itself a business model that tells us much about the porn business overall.
if you folks think it is a copiable business model, then go ahead, copy it. there are clearly a few interesting ideas there that could be used. I'd say it's not very copiable.
it's not like this is the first time someone has come to the boards with a story about success in creating their own semi-private paysite system.
I'm not downplaying your work, man, you should be proud of it, and congratulations.
