I was looking (for research purposes only/for a friend/by mistake/I was bored) at the model used by the porn industry nowadays. I've never paid for porn, and I believe most people haven't either, but they have an incredibly efficient model. Instead of going for 1 shady website with some porn videos, you can signup for a porn network (brazzers, RealityKings, etc) that contains multiple smaller website as well. So for one flat monthly price you get multiple sites, each with a different theme to their porn content. The free sites (pornhub, redtube and alikes) around use a different model though, where they make money from a side business of real time video chat, where you can tip the model with coins you buy in bulk, like a mobile game where you buy in-game currency. I couldn't avoid making a comparison to the publisher business. Porn is just so much more efficient and advanced. I would probably never pay a $5 subscription for WSJ, NYT or WaPo. But a $20 that gives me access to any news site online or even a $15 that gives me access to a good set of them now that's something I can wrap my head around.
