I was using that as an example (DRM). I am indifferent on that technology. Love ya back.

It's hard to compete with free and 100,000+ scenes. I am simply saying, we have noticed the patterns as we wanted to see just how many were downloading versus streaming alone. We also tracked members to see if they were watching all 1000 scenes or not, and most never made it over 250-300 even if they were a member for months or a year. This led to us changing our business model.

That being said, I worry about myself and my business. How others choose to run theirs is up to them. What works for me may not work for you. We based how we do things on patterns we have observed and the lack of complaints showed us most people did not miss it. Those who did just went to the clip store as we can compare membership records with those who purchase clips. Either way, I made more money.
