Who says there wasn't any money to be made?
But I believe the margins are very slim.
And you can't even sell the site once you get flooded with lawsuits.

Tube site owners make an idiot out of themselves by pushing their margins even lower than they already are.

the money is and always will be where the traffic is.. and looking at the stats
the tube sites have the traffic.. i doubt margins are slim.

There is ALWAYS money to be made if your cost of goods is zero. Go to a car dealer on Sunday when they are closed, put up some banners and a sales desk, if you can't make money when your product is free you are a real idiot.

I agree.

Long term consequences of supporting illegal tube sites:

- Increased conversion ratios.
- Loss of goodwill among affiliates and others in the industry (there is a cost).

The latter they can try to prevent by hiding their ownership but the former is unescapeable. It is much like cutting off your leg for $10,000.

VERY shitty attitude mate imho. Illegal tube sites are stealing peoples content and indirectly their income. If that is not a reason to bitch then there I don't know what is.

Bitching about it is one thing, bitching about it every single fucking day instead of taking actions is annoying

If tube sites stay the affiliates will have to go. In my opinion many affiliate programs are aiming for this. Getting all the traffic by giving everything away for free and then turn the tube sites into VOD sites and upsell their paysites. No need to pay 50&#37; to affiliates anymore
