You can't compare the magazine market back in the day without including all the world and all the magazines sold in shops.
Do you know what Beate Uhse was making from Germany alone with a share of the German porn shop market? Now multiply that by the rest of the world and every porn outlets, soft porn as well, to get a figure.
I know, the argument is whether it make more money from giving it away for free because you can sell ad space or selling it. There s no argument more money could and was made when we sold porn. Otherwise Tubes could afford to commission their own content to be created. Which they clearly can't because the advertising won't pay for it.
They couldn't afford the BW at a raised price, can't afford to pay for their own content, because they don't make enough money.
20 scenes a day on Pornhub = $2,000,000 a year for content alone and that's not for good content. I only allowed $3,000 per scene. How much do they make from advertising? How much traffic do they need to pay for content?
And would we as an industry be better off if porn tubes disappeared. Not that they will and we have to live with the cards we are dealt, but don't try to argue we can make more money giving it away for free than selling.

i give up on you. actually we all know now that there was no more money in the market as in the time when you made it .....
you write in a forum where people talk about a biz they live from.
now you don't know who does what or how much he earns but you are sure that they are all dumber than you and only harvest crumbs.
so you are here to tell the people that they are too late because YOU have already taken out everything that was possible.
in other words: you tell the people to give up their biz, in which many earn more in one year than you have earned in your whole life, because it is pointless.
you're such an old fool that you can't even see how ridiculous you are making yourself. if you need people to explain to you that the green men in your bed are not real, then you should go to the old people's home, because there are employees there who are paid to patiently listen to such stories of old senile men.
you're really freaking me out about getting old.
I hope that my fate will take me away before I start to tell tell such a hair-raising stupid bullshit.
the only thing you can really prove is that you didn't manage to build up a reasonably comfortable retirement income in this time of milk and honey.
so WHAT exactly should WHO learn from you?
every one of my dogs and cats knows more about internet and internet marketing than you do. so WHAT can YOU teach us ?
maybe how to win a formula1 race even though you've been cycling all your life?
i don't know what bridge you slept under before you switched to pornbiz. but it must have been a pretty deep valley if you now think you would have climbed the mount everst.
if you could play the piano i would like to explain to you why there are black keys next to the white ones and - surprise surprise - that you can use them too.
