RE: MyFreecams.com
i don't think mfc has too much to worry about. Plenty of other cam sites have appeared in recent years, and still mfc thrives. The token rate that mfc pays the girls is actually quite good compared to some of the other sites.
As for the girls hitting adultwork, good luck to them.
As stated, adultwork has no preview like mfc, so it relies on two things, either the feedback, or the girls having a ready made audience. I know of a few girls working almost exclusively on adultwork, and it's the feedback that gets them where they are, but they really have to work hard for that feedback. It's not like mfc where you can jump on for a bit at random times whenever you don't have something better to do, they work at it like a 'normal' job, putting in the hours, building up both a repeat audience, and also good feedback.
We all know that the bulk of the babeshow type girls are damn lazy when it comes to camming, expecting guys to throw tokens at them for nothing. On mfc, that kind of laziness can still generate some income, random guys wander in the room, throw a few tokens in the hat in expectation, throw in the odd group or private, and it soon builds up.
In adultwork, at the beginning, the girls will have that audience of fans from the channels who will follow them there, but that audience is pretty small and limited and will soon diminish. In the long run, they need more guys, guys who perhaps don't know them from the channels, and are a bit more discerning about where they throw their hard earned. To get those guys spending, they will need to deliver the goods at a reasonable rate and generate good feedback to encourage more guys to take a chance on them. For most of these girls, that is probably too much like hard work, and in the long run, the punters will dry up, and the rates will drop as they get more desparate.
So I think to make adultwork really pay in the long run, the girls really have to work at it, same as the best earners on mfc do. That will work for some girls, who have the right attitude, and treat it like a regular job, working at regular times, and being reliable, but probably won't work in the long term for the bulk of the babeshow girls who seem to view camming as easy money when they don't have anything better to do.
