Ok here's 4 years worth of stats analising on 4 paysites I have owned:
1 Most surfers that acrualy take a membership stay on between 1 and 3 months
2 They visit about once a week and logoff again within 15 minutes.
3 That is where the membership fee with Creditcards is based on for most paysites if they majority came more often and stayed longer the extra Bandwidth bill would crank up the membership fee because costs are high!
4 Costs for the dialer I mentioned would come down to the same amount of $$$ then with a CC membership.
5 making it cheaper then that would put most sites out of business exceptions not taken in to concideration.
6 Most members are willing to pay more then the 30 bucks membership if the quality of the content is high enough.
On the sites behind my dialer everything is set to max. quality at max. speed!
PIcs are put in zips for fastdownloading which they can watch on their PC for free(as an option they can view online too offcourse)
The movies and streams are of the highest quality and also zipped for fast downloading(Again option)
So I don't se the problem
But hey I'm only webmastering in my 9th year got lots to learn
