I wasn't around back then but, I thought I heard that when hardcore tgp's came out people reacted the same way as they do now with tubes.

HIV Outbreak - 2006
Tube sites - 2008-2009

I know I'm leaving some out.

Feel free to add...

Tube sites may not have COMPLETELY destroyed the industry but you have to agree they've done and continue to do a lot of harm to it. Or does everyone think Manwin is a top notch stand-up company now?

Tubes still suck balls. They are here to stay. the best thing you can do is manage your presence on them

When you get the surfer to sign up for your site and make them another offer as well. So they sign for 2 sites - Its often abused as its not always obvious they are signing up for more than one site.

Bad people ruined the industry by giving away 3 times 15 seconds of video instead of 16 pictures.

A lot of people did. They came up with TGP2 which nobody adhered to.

TGP2 converted very well for those of us wise enough to try it.

Should differentiate between things that everyone THOUGHT would destroy the industry and complained about, and things that actually did hurt us, and weren't really discussed until it happened.
