There are a couple things that bother me about porn being on the tube sites. For one, most are not behind a warning of any kind. Yeah, I know, those warnings really don't do much except if you land in court or are dealing with attorney types. If your visitors bypass the clear warning page and admit they are of legal age by clicking enter, you may be saving your own neck. Where's the 2257 information we all have to provide? Why should a tube site be any different from a free site builder? Just like with us, the site owners need to be held responsible for the clips submitted. If they are not willing to do it, they need to re-examine why they are around.

I know a lot of people complain about the various paysites and sponsors putting up clips. I don't have a problem with it as long as they are giving away the same quality and length clips they are letting use in galleries or for free site building. Why would they want to shoot themselves in the foot by putting great quality stuff up on a free tube site? If Joe Schmo Surfer can get his jollies off for free at Red Tube, he isn't going to visit ANY paysites at all. However, if he only gets shorter low-res clips or only gets the foreplay, then a tube site is doing nothing more than any other free site.

The average surfer on these sites doesn't care about quality, and certainly isn't going to pay for any kind of subscription. Do I really want them on my sites? Nope. I want them to visit me when they want a better grade of porn and are willing to pay for it. They are not my target audience, get it? The tube sites, legal or otherwise have as much impact on me as a TGP or MGP. It's a fad that will run its course and die out eventually.
