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.
I agree with you, but it advertising is not "extra revenue" to most magazines - it's their only hope to profit.
