The advantage of a single model is that she is unique. That gives her a potential edge which only sites that take the trouble to develop a distinct theme and style can otherwise enjoy.
Words like "exclusive", "good" and "quality" appear a lot in this thread, but I believe they are largely irrelevant. Content need not conform to any of the common meanings of these words.
For content to play an active role in boosting sales, it must make people sit up and take notice. There isn't one way to do this: the model, the subject and the way that the image has been composed are just some of the possibilities. A picture (or video clip) isn't automatically worth a thousand words, but it
can be.
It's easier to produce content that will retain members, but it still needs to rise above the generic and deliver what the surfers were led to expect. Porn is fantasy: develop the fantasy to sell and sustain it to keep the customers coming back for more.
If I were a content producer I would try to develop a distinct style whether via models, techniques, sets or whatever. I would try to imagine sites that could successfully be themed around my work and ensure what I did was "right" for those sites. Of course a lot of webmasters wouldn't touch my material, but that really doesn't matter if it appeals strongly to others and helps them to earn money.
