in the past year because im always buying sites I saw financials of many BS plugin sites so I know real numbers.
Also it depends on source of traffic, you can have the best site if the source is TGP ot wont retain as well as SE traffic and such.
TGP MGP surfers are mini webmasters, theyknow how to cancel quick.
I dont regret spending shitloads of money on exclusive content, it pays off big time recurring wise.
I know its not what most want to hear but face facts early so you can enjoy some cash later.

I know what you mean, we're moving towards the 100% exclusive model at this time. But I gotta say I disagree with you in the recurring scenario for non-ex/plugin model. Of course, if your site is 100% plugins, I doubt you'll ever have a recurring, unless it comes from an idiot who forgot to cancel. But if you have a good balance between non-ex, plugins and a good interactivity with your members, believe me it's possible. Of course, it also depends on niche. We've a business model we're quite happy with, trying to take the best of every possible aspect in this biz, from traffic to content and all in between
