fuccaneer normal payback period for a lifetime is 3 years so would you plunk down over $500 for LT Drive?
$500.. no. And I know you just came up with that number, but its important becaues right now SLR is coming up with a number and they have to base it on something, not just "the most we can get them to pay" because that drastically limits their market, unless the goal is to sell to less people but break even with high costs. Seems like a turnoff for most people right off the bat. Forget lifetime options, if monthly is too much and doesnt provide enough, most people are not going to upgrade. Why would they? I would pay for lifetime though. Whats the charge for lifetime SLR membership? Something like $1500? Its a made up number, to make the $300 actual cost not seem so bad. $300 is a good value for unlimited streaming and site access imo btw. It pays for itself quick cause you get your money worth compared to some other sites out there. But its $300 for lifetime to a video site, that provides video content. Thats what it does. Passthrough, themes, toy scripts... these are all just added features. Its a video site #1 and they already set the price. Its $300. And if you want more than that, you can pay for another feature, like sextoy scripts. They set a price for that as well, $100 extra. So they valued lifetime toy scripts streaming at $100. This is a price I am willing to pay and dont get me wrong, $400 at once is still a good chunk of change. So now you are trying to take these 2 costs and what they provide, and come up with a roundabout number for another feature the the video site, like DRIVE. Can't cost $500.. also cant be $20. But again, you already paid for the video streaming, DRIVE is just an addon and its not necessairy to watch content on the site. $100 for lifetime scripts, an addon feature, is a metric you could use to put a value on a future site feature that honestly, may not interest many people once the high wears off. Im excited about DRIVE, Im here writing my opinion on a forum designed for opinions and feedback, but Ill say it again: there is a lot of content out there, they need to price it according to that as well. We could all go back to jerking flat mode on our phones sideways and still live fine if you know what I mean.
And I don't know how long SLR is going to have the corner on the AI PT and scripts market.
Shhhhh! You are not supposed to bring that up on here. But yeah some have been saying that, seems reasonable given how quickly AI is advancing. Costs tend to drop and options open up once the market is sufficiently flooded. Its already flooded, and we are just getting started.
