Your first respondent didn't imply, let alone state that billing was the only problem. He wrote simply that billing practises were more of a problem than TGPs.
He didn't go far enough. Even among the sponsors who have been around for years, the vast majority appear to believe that at any moment the bubble will burst. To them, surfers are just chickens to be plucked and thrown away. So these days, if we are lucky, maybe 10% of our potential buyers still haven't been burned at least once. And the percentage declines every year.
There are thousands of pay sites, yet you would be hard pressed to get out of two digits, counting those which deliver something the surfer is likely to be happy paying for. In comparison, the average TGP treats the surfer perhaps too kindly. And without so much easily accessible free porn, maybe there would be more surfers willing to get taken again. For a while.
But until sponsors like Alscan, Karup, ATK, and Scoreland become the norm for our industry, instead of the exceptions, TGPs are among the least of our problems.
