Subscriptions & 'free tickets' vs 'sales'

Since I assume most scenes bought are through tickets given via subscriptions why is this even an issue?

For example, Eva Lexx. I bought to support, I could do no more.

It'd be nice if there was a dynamic interactive forum where each month you could remind LP / AV of which models you'd love see again.

I'm not sure they care about anyone's 'opinions' - all that matters is cold, hard sales figures. If not enough people spend tickets on a model's scene, she won't be asked back.

I'm just hoping that those sites that also have a subscription deal are somehow able to tally people's preferences. I've got a subscription to PornWorld, and I would hope those scenes I decide to download are registered somewhere as me supporting those models and wanting more from them.

I'm sure they track how many downloads & streams each scene achieves, and from that how popular each model is, regardless of how each download/stream was paid for (tickets or subscription).

As I understand it, each studio decides their own revenue model and how much to charge for subscriptions and prices in tkts. The problems arise when studios overprice and consequently subscriptions/scenes don't sell as well as they should. The studio then needs to figure out whether the model(s) weren't popular, or whether their sales were suppressed by overpricing.
