THe site with teh most variety and fullest content sections will eventually win, it will just take time.

Lars, you're on the right track but you're forgeting one imporant fact. Circulation size !!
How many mags do i need to sell per month to break even ??
300k, 500k, 1,000,000+ ? per month and every month to make a profit. And thats not including the extra advertising rev from ads in the mags

How many paysites operators can you name that do more than 10k transactions a day ? How about 5k a day ?? the answer is very few and only getting less. Something drastic would need to happen for that # to start going up again.

So to answer your post, i dont see it going that route anytime soon as we've already proven surfers will pay almost any price for unique and new porn that turns em on.
