I believe the videos aren't as profitable for Gary. A multiple girl video would be expensive to produce just to pay the girls. I'm sure each is payed near $75-$100/hour to do this sort of thing, some probably even more.

Multiply that by 3 or 4 hours (to shoot something remotely good, though I'm not sure how much pre-production Gary does on his vids, and he doesn't do a lot of different shot/types or storytelling with his camera angle selection) and you're looking close to $1000 just for the girls for the day. Then there's editing (I think he pays someone else to do this), and trying to pull a good key from the screen. Someone makes all his backgrounds (which, are pretty generic, so probably not that expensive), but you're still looking at probably close to $1500 per video.

At $8.00 a pop, 200 people need to pay for it. I'm not sure what his numbers are, but that seems like quite a few.
