You could pretty safely rotate 6 months of exclusive content through the membership section and it would be "new" content to your members all the time because they're rotating out too.

This only applies to this particular photo shoot question however. Neither I, nor you, take into account the costs involved in initially stocking the membership section with enough different content/movies/live-recorded feeds.
He's a noobie and will learn. Most sites updating one set a week will lose members who will return in 6 months for a month and 24 new scenes.

We update 3 scenes a day on the paysite and 1-2 a of them are exclusive. We retain 3-4 months. The members simply get bored and move onto the next site for the next high. Some come back though. We were seeing the first rejoins after 4-5 months from cancellation.
