I hate them.
I see a lot of people touting them as the next model for this business, comparing them to TGP's and link lists, and that we should embrace them as the future. I just don't understand that attitude. Why in the fuck would a surfer pony up for a paysite when they can get all that content for free.
I've seen where some of the programs that are supporting tube sites by allowing them to promote their programs as long as they only use short teaser clips claim that they have to do it to protect their content, and that they sincerely hope that the tube sites will do the same with all the videos.
That's a bunch of horseshit. Without the full length videos, that traffic will quickly dry up, and the tube site basically becomes a TGP.
