How Much Money Do You Spend On Porn Each Month?

Anyone feel like sharing how much they spend on porn each month? After having discussed the topic with a buddy of mine, I'm trying to determine whether I spend more or less than the average porn lover.

I DOUBT THAT PU MEMBERS ARE "THE AVERAGE PORN LOVER".
WE'RE PROBABLY IN THE "ABOVE-AVERAGE" OR UPPER ECHELON OF PORN LOVERS.

JUST MY OPINION, OF COURSE.

HOW MUCH DO I SPEND ON PORN?
PROBABLY WAY TOO MUCH.
BUT IT VARIES. IF I FIND SOME SITES I MIGHT LIKE, AND THE PRICE IS LOW, I USUALLY JOIN.

I hope this thread gets a lot of interest. This is a question I’ve had as well.

As lk2fireone said, most people who will respond can’t be categorized as average porn users. First, the average porn user probably spends precisely zero dollars per year on porn. A recent documentary said that 90%+ of porn is accessed on pirated sites. That means that those of us here are definitely not average.

The second reason why anyone responding here isn't average is because a lot of us here are more collectors than simply users. A good example of this is our long-time friend LPee23 who is a walking encyclopedia of watersports porn. LPee23 is probably more of a collector than most of us because of the level of detail he brings to his collection, but most of us here don’t just buy and download porn indiscriminately – we have particular interests (models, niches, etc.) I’m pretty fussy about the sites I join because as a guy who has been collecting for going on 20 years I aim for quality scenes with models I like in specific niches. My days of buying memberships and downloading everything just to have it are over.

I think Onyx makes a fair comment too. For many of us, me included, some months see a buying frenzy. The recent Black Friday / Thanksgiving sales offered through TBP were great and I took advantage of four or five of them.

But to stop being evasive and answer Peter’s question, an average spend for me per month is probably between $50 and $100. Part of that is that I have credits or tokens added to my Legal Porno account every month and that’s an expensive site. But the rest of it is monthly memberships. At any given time I’d have five or six memberships on the go. Right now is a little unusual in that I have 13 active memberships. But a lot of those are because of deals offered over the long weekend.

Two other points that may be off topic: first, because I have specific interests I find that I tend more to have a bunch of sites that I return to regularly rather than simply joining a site because it looks like it might be good. I join sites like Amateur Allure, Evil Angel, X Empire, Exploited College Girls, Jules Jordan, Wake Up ‘n Fuck, Swallowed etc. multiple times per year. I’d guess that I have at least two dozen sites I join regularly. The only downside to that is that I can’t post reviews over and over again.

The second point is in how I (or you) join sites. I’d guess that at least 75% of my site joins are through TBP/PU. I do that deliberately because this site offers a lot and I want them to get the referral fee. I also join sites through email offers as a past member but before I do that I always check the TBP price. Many times the loyalty rebate I’m offered through email is the same price as the TBP discount price. In those cases it’s a no-brainer: I join through TBP. If the difference is only a few dollars and it’s a site I really want to join I’ll still sign up through TBP so they get the referral. I’ll confess to having used one of the big sites that offers discounts but the price differential between TBP and the discount site has to be significant. (My experience with the discount site is that they are less than ‘ideal’ in that they offer mostly the same sites over and over, and I’ve encountered sites where the discount isn't even accurate. So I try to stick to TBP.)

I hope in all this rant I answered your question!

My porn usage hasn't really changed much through the years. It's just that my options aren't as high in number as they used to be. Because of this obsessive-compulsive side I have there's always been one site I stay a member of. For years it was Eve Angel. Then when DDF brought her over to his network, it was Eve Angel Official. I then went through a whole phase with Videobox back when they were updating the Evil Angel and Vivid channels regularly. Then it became ALS Scan and ALS Angels as a combination since they used to offer that deal (still do if anyone wonders, just have to send them an email). Now, it's FTV and Zishy. What it amounts to is I want at least 5 new updates per week. If you look over those previous ones all either updated daily or at least 5 times a week.

Then I bounce around with different genres. The Kink Network was a huge step since I used to join their individual sites. It's strange (probably not) how I blend hardcore with softcore. And as I had said on another recent topic, I do have my times of boredom with porn so I've had to get creative with my memberships.

I did used to do more like RearAdmiral and had lists of sites that I joined multiple times per year, but my current living situation, back to being single, living in a city that I'm not very familiar with and a job that has me roaming back and forth across 7 states makes joining a lot of sites a waste for me since there will be 3-5 days at a time that I won't even touch a computer. Which is how I'll end, I'd have more active memberships right now, but was out of town from Thanksgiving until the following Monday. I didn't know or even think about the Black Friday porn sales until Monday morning. Those were still showing here on PU, but they had expired when I clicked the links. That's kind of how my porn usage is right now. Had a membership to Girls Do Porn for 3 months and completely forgot it until the last two weeks of the subscription.

My monthly spending: About $150 a year on FTV and FTV Milfs and Zishy. Then average 1-2 sites/networks per month at an average of $25-$40 combined per month. Probably safe to say roughly $50 a month. My first time I jacked off, I thought I'd invented it. I looked down at my sloppy handful of junk and thought, This is going to make me rich. - Chuck Palahniuk

I usually buy one site a month, and try to keep it in between $20 and $30 if I can.

I will however splurge to get a good deal for yearly access. "A man talking sense to himself is no madder than a man talking nonsense not to himself."
