build their inhouse mailing list to sell things that you can't get all over the tubes for free
'insert_bunch_of_other_monetization_methods_here'
and of course lastly and way down on the list of priorities/EPC for tube owners, send sales to your program
=================
honestly I am in awe of tubes/manwin for coming up with truly the greatest biz model porn has ever seen - it's absolute genius without a doubt. And no, there is no sarcasm there.

I understand where you're coming from, I honestly do. I sometimes dream a little dream, wishing it were 2002 and I had gotten off my fat ass THEN (instead of 7 years later, when the party was almost over) and done what I did (or did what I done). But shit, sometimes I wish it were still 1973 and the music didn't suck cock...
Just kidding. But you're talking overall tube involvement, not letting them run amock in your Members Areas (as some want to do).

This is impossible with the "big tubes". At this point they don't need any single Sponser so demand too much and they'll ban your ass. You may be able to negotiate something like you suggest with the mid-to-up 'n coming tubes, if you can throw enough sales their way (or vice versa).
