Do you think subscription-based websites are lowering the sales of these marketplaces?

Discussion started by ShaunMars101

Back to board

Every now and then, we come across discussions about a 'drop in sales.' I've been thinking about this lately, and it might not be solely because of AI or inflation. Some new marketplaces provide models on a subscription basis, including some big corporations. Do you think this could be one of the reasons for the crisis in single model sale-based marketplaces?

Any subscription plans are created only to increase owners profit. Creators in such cases become slaves, working practically for free.

Exactly that is my point and because of these websites old pay per sale website creators are suffering.

It is obvious that the subscription system will not be cancelled anywhere. Explanation is again the same and very easy, making a profit. On the contrary, all this will only expand.

That's a point I haven't been thinking about, but you're absolutely correct.
