Most porn today is made by workingman shooters who are just trying to get the scene down, make a little scratch, then go and do whatever they do when not shooting. To do a DVD shoot, or a film project, like Jay Allen and others do, is a whole different strata of production. There is room for ALL kinds of porn tho (amateur, VR, HD, films, POV, gonzo, etc).

Absolutely spot on.
The budgets for content production before online would have blown te mind of the online guys.

The problem happens when the content does not match the presentation. Trying to sell amateurs as pros, or pros as teens, or MILFs as babes etc. When you match up the content with the proper presentation (marketing) it all comes together. Sadly many do not realize this aspect of paysites.

Absolutely spot on.
The content inside sites turned off more buyers than most imagine. It's impossible for a shooter to shoot 5 solo girl sets and videos in a day and make them average, let alone good. When top solo girl sites were paying $300 a scene and demanding 40 scenes of the same girl. That model of paysite had a very short lifespan. Same goes for all the other sites that paid minimum wage for the product.
Buyers soon learn that free porn was the best offer. The lie that buyers won't spend $30 to download 100 scenes in a month is BS. They didn't want 100 scenes that weren't that good. So only the top sites made real money.
