If you cannot sell a good one 10 times in each catagory the first three months you are doing something wrong. So at $35 for the set, $35 for the video and $70 combined thats a total of $1400. And you still retain the license to sell more times.

I was trying to say we know the value of what we are shooting, do paysites KNOW the value of non-exclusive as opposed to exclusive or are they guessing?
Sorry if I expressed something wrong, but Iīm not a native speaker. You said that you couldnīt understand complains about content business. And I took your prices about content and was asking myself what of the amount of 1,400 $ is income for the producer. So you have to deduct a percentage from the total, at least the models fee. That was I was asking for. If you have to pay the model 1,000 $ for the shooting 1,400 $ wouldnīt be pretty much.

But I try to answer your question. First of all you have to define exclusive. There are two possibilities to define it, I think. First of all it exclusive can refer to the shooting. That means the content is exclusive, but the model does shootings for other sites. That wonīt be a great advantage to non exclusive content, thatīs at least my experience. There may be an advantage if the content is a very special, e.g. Collegefuckfest. As far as the content is average, you can use non exclusive content as well.

On the other hand exclusive can refer to the model. That means that this model is available only on your site. That may cause more initial sales, but I havenīt got an experience that way.

So exclusive content defined as in my first definition doesnīt mean more initial sales. But the user does stay longer in the program which means there are more rebills. Thatīs my experience whith european programs. And if there is a personal touch to the exclusive models, the user is more satisfied.
