disappointed

[lion03]

I love this site,it is the best,but I am disappointed Abby has had to resort to paying for private minutes with models. In otherwords like webcam sites.And like those sites the richer receive the benefits. Feedback please.

erm... private chats are not even up yet, the current playdates are all public playdates so any member can join those.

The private playdates, once they do become available, will be an EXTRA thing you can do. If you choose never to pay for such private minutes your membership will still have the same value (and content). I'm not sure why you think such extra content should be free?

I did not say I thought the Private Playdates should be free!

I can see your point that this kind of thing tends to be associated with more mainstream websites and professional adult models but remember to factor in that it will not be porn stars or mainstream models doing mainstream things but abbywinters ladies who have free time and want to engage with some of you. It will be the abbywinters version.

I was very lucky when I did my modeling work with Abbywinters as they were only a short flight away from me so I could come and visit when ever I wanted to. Some of our models live on the other side of the world so for them, having the chance to relive the feelings of being an abbywinters model from the comfort of their own homes, to get the buzz of getting feedback and the fun of sharing the more intimate parts of their lives that maybe their 'everyday friends' might not appreciate, could be a wonderful thing - a way to keep the abbywinters experience going on longer, beyond the visit to Amsterdam and the shoots she chooses to do.

yes Masie,I can also see your point,and afterall the models will only interact with what they wish,and not necessarily what the A.W. subscriber in the private playdate wants or wishes?? I realize it will be up to the model,as it should be.

I love the atmosphere here and I love that girls look like average girls who could be my neighbor. I do not go for porn stars and really hope to be able to chat with girls here one on one soon. I would love to hear about the models more intimate experiences and maybe even learn a bit from them. I really hope this feature becomes active soon and feel the girls should be paid for their time, as I think they completely deserve it. It is wonderful that we can bring people together from all over the world and have fun together.

The playdate feature is an extra - they still post the same amount of content whether you pay to use playdate or not. I don't mind what new features they add. The user who is prepared to pay for private webcam will either do it on AW playdate or some webcam site. I think AW adding webcam feature shows that there is enough demand for it.

I am wondering if A.W. is reacting to the market place,pity if that is the case.

Isn't this how business works? Like any other business, Abby Winters looks at what customers (and future customers) demand, and supply the goods to meet said demand. Webcam chats never interested me, but I don't mind it being there as long as it doesn't take away from the usual shoots/videos that I subscribe for.

Same with g/b content - business evolves as times change. AW has accommodated the changes in market demand while sustaining as much of the original business model as they could.

[lion03]

I agree jktdec710,do not get me wrong.A.W.has every right to add changes as they think the market demands. My point is, it is a pity that it is necessary. Because this is the best site by far,and it is a pity i.m.h.o. that A.W feels the need to go down that path.
