I am assuming you want to know if you would make more money by cutting your prices. That can't be answered. Can you pull off a "blowout" to make it profitable or will you spam the same boards as usual? It's all in the marketing. Of course some paysites want less saturated and high quality content but with all of the shit paysites going up every day there is a big demand for cheap content. If you provide the cheap content and present it right you could probaby quadruple your yearly profit.
You are right, I'm trying to find out what the market really wants.

We already have two sites.

<a href="http://www.bargainbasementcontent.com" target="_self"><img src="http://www.banapro.com/banners/our_banners/bbcs_ban.gif" width="468" height="60" alt="BBCS" border="0"></a>

Has 440 sets all around $5 to $10 and seems to do well. Especially as the license allosw for affiliates.

Is for the better quality sets (460) and priced $30 to $50 per set, more if there is a video and set. Plust the license is more restricted.

But if the I was to put everything into the $5 to $10 site would our sales rise by a factor of 7? I very much doubt it.

And what of our the Internets long term future, is it in supplying newbies and "Quantity" sites or "Quality" sites?

It's also what we should be talking bout rather than what beer we drink.
