As someone who remembers the days when I could convert paysites 1:200 FOR REAL (I'm not trying to sell you anything) AND ROUTINELY and AS AN AFFILIATE I find it incredibly sad to see what has happened to our industry.  |
I am guessing by the links in your signature, that you are the type of guy that would see their content on tubes, with millions of views, and be angry and DMCA the sh*t out of them. And then continue doing the business model you used 6-10 years ago, possibly adapting a little, but always looking behind them at what the industry used to be like. And then attack anyone who speaks out in favour of the tubes, anyone with a new business model that makes use of the insane amounts of free traffic at your disposal. I only joined the industry in the autumn 2006, I didnt know what it was like before that, but I feel you are hurting inside.
I am the complete opposite, and a lot of companies are too, If I find my content on a tube that I do not upload to myself, and the videos have lots of views, I actually get excited as I know those users like my content. I instantly create a CPP account and reach out to the tube, to offer them access to my tube library of over 1,200 10min+ HD clips. Some tubes even let me simply place a affiliate banner under the infringing clips so not to lose all the fans, and data/statistics that the origional files would have. Of course, any full scenes or tube clips that have an overriding watermark or pre/post roll 3rd party adverts, those are removed as soon as I supply the infringing links on a simple email, or have xtakedowns.com issue the DMCA, what ever is easier to the tube.
