I'm sorry to hear you are losing money.
You know, assuming people buy their scenes with the 3-month recurring plan,
at 40 tkt a month, that's only good enough for about 8 scenes a month,
of the 90 plus scenes that are being offered at LP during the same period of time.
That means that for roughly $27'ish dollars a month, we can actually see 8 scenes give or take for that amount of money.
And this is the cheapest option, the other options you offer are more expensive, long-term.
Relative to other porn websites, $27 for 8 scenes is pretty uncompetitive.
For instance, Brazzers offers 60 scenes for $8.33 a month, to their loyal fans ($99 dollars a year).
JulesJordan 3 month plan, offers 10 scenes per $20 each month. And he is one of the most expensive American websites IMO. Still cheaper than LP.
RealityKings has always been super cheap. And you can get their scenes with a $60 one time payment as long as you keep your Brazzers account active.
Americans are capitalist and the best way to get rich is to offer whatever you do, for cheap.
That way you attract the masses.
By being LP and offer everything at a premium, you attract people who, pirate everything,
and people who don't mind spending more than others for the same thing, lol.
I'm gonna join with the others who say that the models we get now,
are just not as compelling as the ones we had before, I really don't want to say this,
but a bunch of the women in the scenes you linked, look overweight.
For porn that matters. IT MATTERS especially on a website that charges you a la carte.
(we basically don't like what's on the menu).
And yes there are people who like girls who are heavier, but how many of those people
like or are OK with, paying premium prices for it? Whereas in Brazzers, everyone pays the same,
so if you like tattoos, fake tits, curvy women, whatever, you pay the same amount of money,
as the vast majority of people who prefer slim ladies, and still, you can watch everything, if you want, not just your niche.
Here is an analysis of my own purchases from this year:
In 2018 (so far) I have purchased 90 scenes. 54 from Gonzo and 36 from Giorgio.
That means that on average, I get to purchase a movie, once every 2 or 3 days.
Here is my take, I still like vaginal porn, 1 on 1, casual, soft, whatever u want to call it.
But when I'm here at LP, I crave a gangbang, airtight is my favorite and thinking she could get fuck all night is what I imagine.
Of the 36 scenes that I have purchased from Giorgio, 58% were gangbangs,
Hot girl, + 5 or more males, equals a scene I want to watch, heh.
Otherwise, it would have been 21 fewer scenes I had to spend money on, that I could have purchased on another studio. Like Gonzo.
The thing about his scenes tho, they are rarely offered for less than 5 tkt.
This doesn't leave much room to maneuver for me to get other scenes that are not gangbangs.
You keep producing scenes that are not gangbangs,
2 on 1, not a gangbang
3 on 1, not a gangbang
4 on 1, not a gangbang
5 on 1, ok a gangbang, a cheap one at that
You know you probably lost faith in the gangbangs that you produced,
probably because of the whole sales and cost production dilemma.
but IMO, the gangbangs were all filmed the same way a 3 on 1 scene is filmed.
I have always thought you had the numbers but the execution was mediocre.
I was also thinking, "these guys don't understand what we want".
Gangbangs were created like this:
Same overall duration, the same amount of time per position, not longer, to accommodate more guys.
Same amount of interruptions to show gapes, more time switching the guys, but same duration per position equals less sex,
Girls look the same after finishing a 10 on 1 or a 3 on 1. Not any more tired or overwhelmed.
That's like an athlete looking the same after running a 5k race or a 40k marathon. LOL
5 race ends in about 20 mins, marathon after 2 hours, HOURS!! lol.
You know. the only reason I buy more from Gonzo, is because I identify myself better with their male actors. Also, Luis.
But I think the reason why Giorgio is taking over is simply because, he puts his money on what we ask for.
He produces his movies in a way that lets him hear the feedback and adapt so much faster than Gonzo.
Gonzo films 50 movies as quickly as possible, but then takes a year to release those, or longer,
and the feedback takes that much longer to reach Luis. Whereas with Giorgio the feedback loop seems to only be behind
weeks, maybe up to a month. I think this is it, the key to his success. And even though, he is constantly claiming that we
don't represent what the masses want, and we don't know what we are talking about here at the forum, you can always see our opinion inspire his new movies.
I mean, the first time I have noticed my feedback being taken into account by Luis, was when I talked about
the stripper club scene with Tyra Moon, SZ1450 that was released in 2016 and a whole year later after I commented on it,
Luis replied, with a "I think you are right" type comment. Where I talked about the camera, framing the model, etc,
and that feedback showed up in Luis movies until the SZ1900 range, 600 scenes later.
I remember thinking right then, "why do I even bother with these reviews". lol.
And you know what, I'm not the only one giving feedback.
But I actually enjoy making the gifs, so there is that.
Anyways, this thread is tittled "Glamporn slowing taking over Gonzo updates"
and with news like these:
The future looks grimm.
