Now let's look at every online business. They've all MASSIVELY changed in the past 20 years. In fact most have MASSIVELY changed in the past 2 to 5 years. Paysites can not continue as they are. They must change.
What will happen to paysites operating exactly as they always have is going to be a gradual decline. For some it will be rapid and for others it will be slow. But the decline will happen.
That i am 100% sure of. There is no magical comeback for the current version of what a "paysite" is.
I think there is potential for a new generation of paysite to evolve and come out from this. The reality is more people than ever before are consuming porn. Someone has to create and produce that porn and they have to be paid for the work. How to make it all work is the magic question.
Charging $34.99 a month for 5 updates a week is not the future of porn. That is the past. Now what is the future???

Now what is the future??? And will it be profitable?
The old model is dead. It's little more than pay your money and get a package of recorded porn. 99.99% who buy porn do so to jerk off quick and get on with their lives, that's been constant for all my years in the business. Online changed the delivery method and
nothing else.
So the target market is 00.01% who want more than a jerk off with recorded porn. This is a portion of the market who want more than a product that allows them to imagine they're in the scene participating or just watching. They want interaction. Webcams give them that.
Can a pornsite merge the two? Online shoots made to look sexier than they are, live BTS, girls chatting with and to an online audience at pre-arranged times. Forget the $30 model, people will pay the money for the right product, the hard part is getting the product right.
