It does not matter if it's exclusive or not.
The only thing that matters is does it keep your members member hard.
Exclusive crap will not work, non-exclusive good content will. Club 17 only buy from professional photographers who rarely sell exclusive. Their site is full of our pictures, so exclusive does not work for them.

The problem with selling an exclusive set is simple. We offered exclusive sets for $300 on 5 major boards and got 0 answers. Our sets sell 30 times at $30-50 then we "kill" it. So $300 is a fair price for us and the buyer.
But with no takers, we ask what will the net pay for exclusive?

You could end up buying stuff from someone over producing or pushed for sales. Then it's likely to be a girl he shot 10 sets of minimum. Whats exclusive about that. Or bad content.

Simpler still, how many adult sites on the Internet? Do you really think they are going to find your set twice in the same year? Only if you buy from one of the 100 images for $10 merchants who selll it 100+
