I got my calculations wrong.
Pornhub put up 20 new videos a day, at a cost of $3,000 per video. Could they do that and pay for the content?
20 x $3,000 x 365 = $21,900,000 How many surfers do you need to pay $21 million for just creating the content?
Did the porn industry generate 20 new scenes a day or 200?
Was the porn industry able to afford the BW costs or the printing cost or the duplicating costs prior to Tubes?
The truth is tubes can only survive because their costs today are so low. If they had to buy content, pay for a higher priced BW. Tubes would whither and die and paysites would replace them.
The Internet allowed loads of new people to enter porn and make money. Now the number of people making money in porn has shrunk to a low level. Most people here have switched to making money in other sides of the Internet. And porn as a part of their income, which is why the board has slowed down compared to the good times. With the front page containing threads from the last three days.
While Thommy rants on and on claiming something without offering examples to back it up. I offer examples.
