Agree with erso. Much of the internet consists of buskers, and buskers cannot rely on revenue. They sing on the street for the love of it, or for self-promotion, or because they don't have headshots and an agent to book a concert hall, or because they're crazy--not because this will bring them a fortune, because it won't. Pay-per-view, however, is booking a concert hall and charging admission. And selling subscriptions is selling season passes to the shows. Very different. Busking might drum up a fan base, but bona fide concerts are where the real revenue is. Think for a moment: pay-per-view and subscription pr0n are where the internet revenue is.
