So now ReDTube is calling people now to sell it

Damn, this thing must be burning up their bank account and they are trying to bait and switch a buyer real fast before they eat up too much revenue. I know 3 people they called unsolicited to sell it from Hong Kong.

I saw someone post their emails soliciting the sale. Why sell something making money? Unless of course.........

I've been there just to see what all the hubbub is about. I think that site sucks personally. In fact most of these tube or flash movie sites suck.

I wonder who sold everyone else out? They have email addresses that are not public.

Someone sold these people a database.

The problem is, if someone purchased it there is nothing stopping them from starting another one straight away.

Agreed. Look at them as a porn consumer and you can see how crap they are.

What all this proves is traffic is not king, conversions at a profit are.

its simple really, if everybody turns them down, the site is going to flop, and it will set an example for anyone else looking to run an illegal tube. or any tube for that matter. the problem is, that someone eventually is going to see this as an oppurtunity and buy it, thus giving the idea of starting an illegal tube site to in turn flop it at a profit some legitimacy...

Consumption Junction could have sold at its hight for 15 times more than it did at its end.

They are trying to learn from past industry mistakes I guess.

Why does everyone assume they want to sell because it's costing them more than they're making?

I know some people too that got calls. They are very, very vague with the info they give out. Anyone with half a brain won't touch this site. I doubt they will find anyone to buy it.

Anyone forking out a substantial amount of cash for a site will most likely have a no compete contract. Whether it's enforcable against some guy hiding in HK is another matter, of course...

That is what I was thinking. Anyone have proof that it is the owners of Red Tube that are actually selling and not some scammers? How much are they asking?

Wait, weren't you going all out telling people that RedTube has traffic which, to you as a sponsor, it makes sense to use? You never cease to amaze me...

Paul Markham has 2 personalities. That is why he makes no sense.

1st, redtube is great and he uploads content to it.
Then it sucks.

This guy is mentally retarded.

some funny numbers in the docs for sure, if they would ask the 3 times year profits it would come out to a gazilion dollars ;)))

Btw I seriously doubt it costs more than it makes to operate, I think they want to get rid of it before they get slapped with lawsuits ;)))
