What has happened ove rthe last year is the content business has consolidated and we have the added market of phone porn.
There are now some good and honest brokers who lwill return you a lot more on a set than exclusive will ever pay.
This is how I got into selling porn on the Internet, selling via brokers liks Photorama, John Copeland and Scarlett. Some of these companies made us over $800 on a solo girl set. Photorama send us a check every month.
Then in 2002 the market changed and lots of shooters from "Russia" turned up reduced the price and the buyers were buying on price and as the market grew no one noticed the difference in returns, just less inverstment in content.
Today the market has changed again, the big growth of newbie surfers is over, today as an industry we sell to a repeat buyer. They are not interested in the price of the set or how exclusive it is. They are paying us to get their dicks hard.
Pornography does that, pictures of naked people can do it but not as well. So pornographers are back making money again.
If the best you can do is get $150 from a paysite for exclusive, then fine. But what you are saying is your content will not sell 10 times at $35 and earn you more money.
