Video on demand

Post by chatterji »

This is not meant to knock anyone, but I just don't get VOD as a business proposition. Why would any punter buy a temporary service, which requires them to continuously pay more money, for material that they can't even download?

Most porn is crap, but the stuff that gets your heart a pumpin' is the stuff that you want to come back to...at least I do. As a punter, token-sites, or variations on the money for minutes theme, seem a ludicrously bad deal. I'd certainly never pay my hard-earned to a VOD site, when I can join a site like Climaxcorner for a tenner a month, or Scorevideo for about 20, (to cite two personal faves), and have hours of dvd-quality material..

So the question is, does anyone really believe that VOD offers punters a good deal?

Personally I wouldn't use vod, nor would I sign up for a web site or pay ?15+ for a dvd for that matter to watch once or twice at a push/pull. There are plenty of web sources for free and sat movies. You can record vod by outputting signal from video card to dvd or hard drive recorder.

It obviously fills a niche market

Someone who doesn't want to use the perilous P2Ps,hasn't got satellite and isn't after a large collection of porn at home for obvious reasons

The law of diminshing returns also applies to porn so while the first viewing might have had you all agog its almost certain by the tenth that same feeling won't be recreated

I signed up to a VOD site and I can look at the pornos that I paid about 8 dollars each for any time I like - so you need to shop about if you are thinking about it - I joined coz they had shanes world vids (I'm a Shane fan see)

In terms of diminishing returns, I find abstaining for a few days is a big help.
