Again I agree.
I would say the shows of the past were far more entertaining. Where possible, there were props bought in that were used well. (I do recall the odd show here and there they had a motorbike in the studio).
Yes BS have been living of their name for a very long time and like you say others were run very ineptly. I would say that the business models of other channels probably weren't as well thought out as BS's business model is. I reckon the secret is in the type of licensing you have.
Whether most of the other channels used dutch licences like BS do, I wonder whether the other channels pushed too far deep with the licensing rules and ran into a few brick walls.
We all saw the fallout over OF with st66 I think that was the pivotal moment when the babes suddenly got the right to have a say in the Studios business model and what it has led to as you say is the girls pretty much controlling the show's direction. the tip goal/buzz/private thing has pretty much become the 100% focus of the show/stream. On that point do the girls post far more on instagram now than they do on OF?
I did use BS on streamate, and let's not forget rampant as well. I used streamate a few times but haven't been on there in a few months, and that was only for some BS babes. I know some of the girls used adult work in the beginning, but I don't think they do now. Like I said I liked streamate for a while but I stopped for no reason & havn't been back on there since, probably March April time. Maybe one day, I'll go back on it. (Just have to find the right time and moment to do so)
I liked AW and still use it. I used BS Cams when it first started up and it was fun I don't remember the last time I used it. Wasn't BS Cams set up to conter the initial threat from cam sites?
I get the feeling in time there will be a new generation of punters, but it will probably take quite some time to happen. I think there also will be a new generation of babes (And some will probably be AI ones) to entice them.
I would not be surprised if eventually the keyboard and mouse disappeared in future if technology evolved to a point where they did become obsolete (but hope that won't happen).
Cam technology has evolved a lot, but I do think many babes when doing shows from home, probably use cams that are either a few years out of date, but even then, some probably use the built in cams in laptops as well.
And you're probably right on where XP are in terms of their status in regard to BS, I they did expand to another location in the same way BS have then I think if that was to happen then they probably would grow to BS' level. It's whether XP feel they need that expansion as well.
I feel very much now that any new channel that starts up today, has to have a very solid financial model that is in place for several years ahead and it would need - in some way - to have a very different kind of output that grabs our attention. It is going to to take something spectacular to even make BS look nervous!!
