Are Torrents Killing The Business?

Who needs to join a site when most of it is here.. tnaflix.com

Exactly! Go to that site and do a search on "Rhylee". The full version of a sponsor movie gallery I tried to promote (and got tons of unproductive traffic and previously mentioned) is there. Now, I am not trying to be a whiner. I am just trying to sort out a strategy of what the most productive sponsors might be.

You're right, there are full version videos from loads of different sites, do a search on some of the video titles in google and it will hit the first page for that site.

Pays before signing up to an affiliate program to see how freely available the content is.

I generally run a search on the pay sites before I get to far in to promoting. I see a lot of sponsor stuff on these sh1t sites.

Considering Rapidsh1t is #11, and Megaupyourbutt is #13 on Alexa, that's a whole lot of bandwidth they are burning, paid for by ads & premium passes by way of Paypa1.

That then begs the question, is there enough to gain by shutting these sites down, to invest the ongoing time and expense needed to do so?

See above, and I personally think going after their ads sponsors would be more productive than spending huge amounts of time getting individual files removed only to be uploaded again a few days later.

There is a school of thought that considers it almost a "cost of doing business" but it just drives me nuts. I'm feeling almost paranoid enough to put a thread on my members board about the impact of sharing what they download from the members area.

But I doubt that would do much good, and would probably look petty...and paranoid, lol

A quick google while I was checking your site name

Notice the ads. So in summary, I still figure it's better to go after their money source.

I personally think most sponsors don't say much or seem to care if their stuff is on torrents or tube sites because they are still getting branded. Most every sponsor provided pic or video has their url on it, so they are basically getting free advertising and lots of it. Sadly the real people losing out is the affiliates.

yup I agree 100% and it isn't gonna get any better

but still you will always have those kind of sites to cater to the freeloaders who want it all for free, fuck the samples will give them, they want the whole movie for free...

those sites, and I've checked them out and tryed them, they arn't all what there cracked up to be, like waiting for downloads, downloads stopping, needing this and that to get the download and so forth

And we know that's never going to be stopped. Still goes back to the sponsors still being covered because of the urls on the content. Hell, bypass the affiliate and it's more profits. Sad it's come to that, but what other reason could it be?

Somewhat goes along with my other theory on why I think some sponsors make crap tours, but thats another thread..

I found some of our content on torrent sites and extremejohn (owner of ragecash) immediately emailed them and asked them to remove it.

We don't support torrent sites in any way shape or form.
