And the business model isn't destroyed it's just on the severe decline because of industry idiocy.

You have a point about trying to work with the tubes to keep content up which still has a chance of getting a sale versus pirated full scenes. I'll give you that. But this belief that you will convert one paysite sale for every 5,000 video views on a tube loaded with full scenes by giving away 1,200 10min+ HD clips is ridiculous. You can come up with all the evidence you like but to me it's like someone pulling out an alleged photo of a pink elephant and then telling me I'm ignorant because I don't believe pink elephants are real. My common sense and experience overrides your "evidence". It's not as you present it to be.
