I do not own or run any online businesses with adult content, so I am no expert. Still, that just sounds so below market value for what the models/performers, site owners and operators *could* be making in other ways. I cannot imagine anyone being interested in creating such a thing.

What you get for $30 on most sites (including the T&D related ones that I have tried so far) is a few new picture series and a couple new videos every month, at least that's what it seems like to me. The clip stores charge over a dollar/minute for the most part for their clips. And the webcam performers will often charge $3 or $4/min or more.

On the low end of your numbers, You are talking about 3 videos * 30 days per month = 90 videos * 10 min per video = 900 minutes = 15 hours of video for $30. I don't see it happening.

But like I said above, I am not in the business...I am sure someone here knows much better than I do, and I proactively defer to them.

I admit I would almost certainly subscribe to it if someone *did* do it, though!!!! ;)

This could be a brilliant idea but you would need to clarify certain areas for me. The biggest of this is where would you get your videos from to stream? i know a couple of porn producers and they would be reluctant (read not gonna happen) to give you their films for nothing. Also, although models sign release forms to say that they are over 18, doing this of their own free will etc, these release forms are held by the company that produces the films so again you would need to speak with them about buying the films off of them. This is mostly to do with copyright issues. Most of these companies have their own sites that you can stream their videos or buy outright from. And with the proliferation of tnaflix, pornhub, youporn and others which stream porn films and clips for free you are potentially not going to make the money that you think you might.

The only way to make a fairly substantial amount of money is to stream porn that no one else has. And to do that you either have to make these films yourself or enter in to an agreement with a company that makes them to be able to stream the films before anyone else does. Not sure that will happen but you can always give it a try.

i know that what i have written is very negative and i do apologise for that as i think your idea is quite good. It is in fact close to brilliance. Good luck with it if you go for it.
