stripperfacials.com is doing well for me and its streaming only

southernbukkake does extremely well and its streaming only for HD content…downloadable is way way lower quality neither are hurting because of the changes.

if porners would quit whoring themselves and place more value on their content then consumers would see the content as having more value.

The business model is broken, and piracy is just a small part of it….giving away years worth of content for the price of a one month membership is a retarded model to begin with and it was destined to fail. But when people saw the internet as a place to dump cheap content it seemed like a good idea, now that it’s the main place to monetize your content it’s has come around to bite us. If we as an industry can’t get our act together and fix it, it’s gonna fail and something new will arise….and when it does I bet it will be more like my stripperfacials site than like buying an issue of Penthouse Magazine and Penthouse in return sends you every issue ever printed to go with it…

Quentin is a really smart guy, having spoken to him a good deal. What I read from that interview was that he was making a lot of PR-friendly general statements, all well intentioned and not going into a lot of specifics. PV is trying a lot of interesting things and it will be interesting to see the results.

Pink Visual has been really out front in trying to get studios to step up and use services like mine or Eric’s and to just do something…anything…period. They’re definitely one of the good guys in this fight.

All the stuff you suggested Mike are really great ideas. Just needs to be a company out there that wants to take the lead in implementing them. By the way, I’ve spoken to a great many studios about streaming-only vs downloads in their members area. While it’s great for protection, it does hurt them a lot in the membership numbers, that’s the trade off they aren’t willing to accept right now.

I know you can’t attend the Content Protection Retreats that Pink Visual has sponsored (which have been really good by the way), but you’re friends with several studio heads, you should give them your suggestions and have them bring them up at the next retreat.
