i can't say i like the idea, but I don't say it will fail for sure until I see it tested. I find good for some mainstream services where you have to deal with webmasters, but I'm not sure if it will offer on porn sites. As you already said, the client is always right... If the surfer gets a prompt to leave the site or he'll be billed for a monthly membership it's ok.

The model free->trial->full month membership is worse than trial-> membership.

Not giving the option to the surfer to see when he'll be billed (actually when the 30min has passed) will probably be a big chargeback problem. Personally as a consumer I wouldn't like to be billed without getting such prompt.

Flyntdigital gives 1 day free trial, but they have to rebill at near $50 in order to manage make a profit.... Obviously this model will not work for many sites.
