I prefer yes.
I don't think the trio would cost more. When the team shooting duo cards, 3 or 4 models in Paris. They're making 10 cards (with models A, B, C, D, A-B, A-C, A-D, B-C, B-D, C-D). I don't think where making 10 cards, not make 11 or 12 cards with these girls or 1 or 2 duos instead 1 or 2 trios.
Anything else: Here 91 percents say yes to trios. This not a little.

I would be interested to see what it looks like, like the cages. It's hard to say absolutely yes/no without seeing something. My concern is that due to the short clip length, there would not be enough time for all girls to be involved, so one would potentially end up just being an observer. When you see 3 girls in a normal video, they usually all take turns. Maybe there would be 1 clip for each girls to be the centre of attention (fewer clips, but longer)?
I agree the fixed camera could also be an issue, but it seems to work ok with the duos.
Still prefer singles.

I disagree that trios wouldn't cost more. In fact, I believe they would cost significantly more. (Although I could be wrong).

If we assume that each model is paid the same for every card ( whether solo, duo or trio), then a trio costs three times more than the a solo and 1.5 times more than a duo.

This means that for a trio to be worthwhile you need to generate at least 1.5 times the sales (whether that is from higher prices or more volume of sales) of a duo for the card to be worthwhile. Otherwise, Totem would be better off just producing another duo.

I also don't think the results of the poll indicate that Totem will receive massive sales from members as a whole. All it demonstrates is that there is an interest in the idea. But many voting yes may not buy consistently.

But I think there is one key reason why there will be no trios: it is because DB is in decline. Since DB started, totem have had a 1 credit sale for all cards, permanently dropped the price of duos from 3 to 2 credits and reduced the volume of cards produced.

On the other hand, Totem has increased the number of VGHD cards from 4 to 5. That suggests to me that Totem are more concentrated on VGHD than DB. This could be because VGHD profitability per card is better than DB. If this is the case, why would Totem take a risk on a trio card which costs more and is simply more risky based on an unrepresentative poll in a forum?I certainly wouldn't take such a risk.

Apasas has an interesting economic analysis, but it may be a bit oversimplified. Suppose I own a soda-pop factory producing seltzer, cola, and cherry sodas which cost ME 5 cents, 10 cents, and 15 cents per bottle respectively to produce, and I sold each of them for a dollar a bottle. I do make a little more profit selling seltzer, but I would not necessarily have to sell three times as much cherry soda as seltzer to do equally well. I probably tried to charge more for cherry soda at first, but it got complicated and my customers wouldn't stand for it, so now I'm happy to sell any flavor I can for a dollar a pop (pun intended). The history of Desk Babes may have some similarities to my hypothetical soda-pop factory.

It's none of our business whether Rex has similar profit margins (he may even have better!). He does not need our business advice, but I'm sure he's listening intently to what interests us. Similarly, we may never know all the reasons the Desk Babe prices have come down since they were first introduced, but new products almost always get cheaper as efficiencies and economies of scale are developed, especially when my product is simply electronic data.

Before we or Totem get too involved with the economics, the technical and artistic challenges must be met. If there's a market for something, the entrepreneurs will figure out how to make a living selling us what we want to buy. If they build it, we will cum.

Com'on guys, this is capitalism, it is gonna be more expensive, but someone will buy them, this is the play.

I think that´s a good idea, it opens a lot of possibilities we all know.

By the way, we´ve never seen a true strapon, don´t you think it could be nice?

I´ve just seen new card in the web, so I have to "swallow" my last words, marvellous strapon between Silvie and Rachel, 10/10.
