There are time when I think that several smaller, independent sites should team up, so that members have more to choose from,and as such, customers will have a (less hard) time finding and wanting to join a somewhat bigger site.

Somehow, we independent studios need to be able to compete for customer's attention, and $$s with Chi Chi, Falcon, Titan, etc.

And it isn't going to be with 100 independent studios sites, with 50 models each.
