I believe the two models reach an entirely different segment, and need to be addressed an entirely different way. I'm not sure how I could be any clearer.
Mr. P is doing a great job with the segment that wants to buy a monthly membership. I respect and admire him for that and for his intelligence, sagacity, and helpfulness.
I believe, based on a great deal of data, that low interaction payments would add significantly to the revenue of what is essentially an impulse purchase market. I fully agree with your points and caveats Mr. P - even the one about self-selecting into different payment options, and cannibalization. I appreciate your thoughts and guidance.

Great use of the rarely-used word 'sagacity' - tho I'm so tired i thought you were talking about this shitty village i visited once in india, 'Saga City". Or maybe it was a one-horse town in Tucson. Anyway, who IS the Mayor of Saga City? But I digress...
It's totally agreed there are differant segments and groups of purchasers and man do i wish i could be the "Wal-Mart of Porn", catering to everyone's "tastes" (I use that word loosely in association with Wal-Mart). But I don't feel i can and it's based purely on traffic. Percentages are wonderful things but can also be misleading to the bottom line.
I wish there was a way to offer options without offering options. LOL
