If we weren't in a pandemic where it seems that whatever content the producers had in stock has already been exhausted then I might look at this as great news but for now it feels more like producers trying to keep their membership numbers up by buying third party content.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not opposed to the idea of Vixen videos or any of the other Vixen group content winding up on AT but I don't see that happening without a significant increase in membership cost.
Making porn isn't cheap and while more members means you can keep you membership cost lower. I somehow doubt that AT has enough members to off-set the loss of revenue if they became part of AT.

REPLY TO #2 - pat362 :
As you know, I'm not a porn professional.
So my knowledge is limited.
But I think the idea of Adult Time posting content from other established sites is a form of cross-advertising.
A member of Adult Time who sees the limited content of Femjoy or Vixen or some other site, and enjoys it, might become a member of that other site.
I have no idea whether Adult Time has to pay for the limited content they borrow/lease from other sites.
And if there is payment, it might not be in the form of cash, but it could include advertising for the other sites, or cross-promotional links to join those sites. Or some other form of non-cash payment.
Again, I'm not in the business of porn, and have only a vague idea of the financial structures of the sites/networks.
I think that Adult Time is trying to become the giant supermarket of the porn world. Probably as a result of the tube sites, which offer a huge amount of hardcore content for free. Adult Time is not free, but if they can include a large number of paying customers, then, hopefully, they will be able to offer their own content and some content from other sites.
I don't follow Adult Time that closely. I read that Gamma Entertainment (that owns or runs Adult Time) bought Femjoy recently. And Adult Time has a new Femjoy channel, with content being added slowly from the Femjoy site.
Obviously, if you're a big fan of Femjoy, you will purchase a separate membership to Femjoy.
Adult Time has a Bare Maidens channel, with limited content. If you like the content, I assume that some Adult Time members will purchase a separate membership to the Bare Maidens site.
That's why I think adding content from other sites is a form of cross-advertising.
And most businesses don't release the details on how these cross-site deals work.
But if either side feels the deal is not working out to their benefit, they can end the deal.
I don't know the financial details or structure of Adult Time. But I would guess that they want to become the one-stop-store for the average porn consumer, in competition with the tube sites.
So the most obvious path would be to keep growing their content. And try to increase their membership.
I'm sure the coronavirus is hitting the porn industry, as it is hurting most industries around the world.
I only hope they have the financial strength to keep growing. Or, to stay alive, at the least.
Sometimes businesses expand too fast, and go bust.
But as far as the Vixen group material being expensive, I doubt it.
Vixen and the other related sites have a huge amount of material on the tube sites. Again, I'm not an expert, but why pay a high price for content that is spread over tube sites for free? If Adult Time is paying for that content, they are probably doing it in a non-cash manner, is my best guess. And Adult Time is probably also using a commission rebate scheme, similar to what PU uses, as credits earned from subscriptions made from an Adult Time link.

As with most of the sites that are added to Adult Time, such as Femjoy, the content on Adult Time is only a fraction of the content on the site itself.
Having been a member of Adult Time for over a year, there are basically 2 tiers of sites that are hooked up with Adult Time. There are the Gamma-related sites (Devil's Film, 21st Sextury, the Adult Time original sites) where all of the individual site's content is on Adult Time, then there are the huge number of now-added sites where they add a scene now and then, but not the totality of what is on the site if you join that site directly. I think it's cool to get a sample of so many different sites, but I don't agree with the characterization that Adult Time would be the only subscription one would need if you're a big fan of the sites being sampled.
