what we will probably see is webcam sites attracting porn stars. as porn sites close or have less funds for cash, i see many uk porn stars quit the biz. but they have a bit of a name and huge twitter/facebook followers. so if your a webcam site its well worth you trying to get them to your site and bring there followers with them.
its a bit like uk pole dancing. this was big money but as more places opened the money the girls made droped and many went to do porn. but that money is much lower.
also in the uk they brought in a yearly fee of £150 (or somthing) which has put many girls off from doing there own porn site. webcam is excempt from this fee. thus you can see many turning to webcam.
but for those who run there own sites, setting up a studio could also be seen as a better option. no need to spend £4000 on the latest hd camera and spend time editing the films. only to see them uploaded (pirated) to every tube site. Much easer to just have the shows live.

Good post.
Webcam was a small section of online porn. It will survive, while other parts whither away. Will it ever "Save online porn?". No fucking way. Guys who want a live girl won't want a pre recorded video, guys who want a pre recorded video won't buy a live web cam. Not 100% but close to it and most who have tried to upsell from a members area are likely agree.
When I see US porn stars all over webcams, I will start to think it's saving the industry.
Also saturation is a good point. Unemployment of girls 18 to 25 is awful. There must be 100s of girls who are doing it now, who wouldn't if they had a job.
OTH drowning people will grasp anything that drifts by.
Barry, want to meet up and discuss opening a webcam studio here with your money?
