Oprano Adult Industry Forums - Tube Site Owner Interview

Not that I usually spend much time reading Xbiz, but this one got my attention:

Quote:

"Pirated content is not necessary and is in fact harmful to the industry in the long term. Tube sites can be viable without pirated content. Many producers seem happy to give three minute clips for free and according to our research for videos that are longer than three minutes, people don't watch till the end 80 percent of the time," said Jacobs.

What I find amazing is that the guy can generate a million plus hits a day to his tube site, but he apparently cannot connect the dots. Here's a hint: If the video is long enough, the guy whacks off and calls it a day. Most guys need about 6 or 7 minutes of "what they wanted" and they are done. So if your clips are 10 minutes long, a significantly large amount of people won't make it to the end.

Rule #1 of selling porn, you can't sell porn to a guy who just threw away the used kleenex.

Then again, it would appear that their intention is to sell eyeballs (advertising) and not to sell porn. So another example of porn being turned into a valueless commodity to make other products sell. Porn producers should take note! The site is covered with Ulust, AFF, and other dating sponsors, the porn ads are pretty well hidden.
