Bandwidth is dirt cheap, e.g. ThePlanet: Dual Xeon, 1GB RAM, 2TB for $200/month or 3TB for $500

And yes, very high quality thumbs is a must! Especially for teen/babe TGPs. A 90k TGP will take up 4hours of maintenance every day, mainly tweaking the trades.

And regarding the skimming/redirection, before I quit my Uni course I asked a few friends what they felt about it, and the reply was "great, even more porn!".

Of course everyone would rather have a nonskim TGP like thehun, videopost, shemp or worldsex as the traffic is more valuable, but its impossible to start one now and reach that size within a few months or year no matter how much effort you put in. It'll take 6+ years of slow growth to reach there. By that time this industry would be totally different. And don't expect any SE traffic to help growing it, Google is putting every single new domain in the sandbox for 3-12months and even after that, it won't treat the domain as it does with others registered pre-2004 (meaning it won't rank you in the top 20 in the SERPs).
