They also use the model of giving some of the profits back. They let you charge for the videos you upload and you take 1/2 the money. You can browse this whole site though without getting the dreaded "Pay Now" screens like zivity and adultfriendfinder PureCompanion.com is another new adult network site.

To me Nudity does not equal Porn. WalMart and I differ on the issue though as they stopped selleing even Maxim Magazine for being to racy. I think there is room in the "Amateur" fetish for a quality site to generate revenue from subscriptions however I doubt that it will be as much as they expect. More likely their base of income will come from ad revenue related to the free content they give away to non-members.

I mean, why shell out dough when I can go to a nice site like http://pornzala.com and find whatever porn videos I want? Vertical search is 2.0 too, right?

"It’s not a porn site, such as the newer sites Eroshare (pictures) or Pornotube (vidoes). Rather, it likens itself to a mixture of MySpace and Playboy magazine with popularity/voting features thrown in." Why does Zivity say they are not a porn site? But they are like Playboy, a porn company. That doesn't make sense. And what's wrong with porn? Why not make a porn company and just be upfront about it? Zivity is a porn company. So what. I’m a little confused reading the article.
