Every scene on my site is exclusive with girls that can't be found anywhere else. I never bought any content from anyone.
For example my question is:
If there are 2 websites with the same exact revenue, but site A has 300 exclusive scenes and expensive programming put into it, with a good design and known brand, and site B has 40 non-exclusive licensed scenes and a wordpress them, are both sites supposed to still be worth the same amount?
It just seems like it doesn't make sense, because I could make more just by licensing or selling all of my content by itself and still own the site in the end.

You are welcome.
About website A & B. They don't have the same value for sure, that's why I wrote that content comes into play and anyone willing to pay the same for those two would be either ignorant or new.
But consider that the CMS the site has usually is worthless to the buyer, because unless it's the same that is being used in the buying organization it's going to be replaced and in doing so, the design usually is too. Unless of course if the current design is top notch (not saying yours isn't btw!) and meets the line that company goes for and knows works AND that the current design files are available in proper built PSD files so templates can be made in the new CMS. Well you get my meaning here.
So at the end of the day, it really comes down to pt. 1.
If you can do better with licensing or selling the content then do that. You can probably still sell the site. Or just try and sell the site first, maybe someone snags it at the price you feel is right and then all is well
