No one really qualifies for DDG last several yrs, except maybe a couple but no one currently. I would say you have to go back 8-10 yrs+ for the golden era. Objectively on appearance it was def way better before, so I disagree it’s nostalgia. Back in the day, at any given time I had 2-3 good options to choose from. These days even when I want to hobby it’s a challenge to find even one. My visits are way down over the years because of it
I sort of agree that the DDG quality has gone down, but I realize my memory isn't that objective, so I'm not that sure.
However, I think DDG at right price point is important to get new guys into the market. Newbies go for the face/body looks while experienced mongers go for service/attitude. In SF Redbook days, I wouldn't go above $200. Even now I won't do $300/hr unless looks and style of service I like is good.
SF Redbook with it's advertising and comment, discussion I think got the $200/hr market going. It helped pull new independant girls in, before korgs, who priced low initially, but if hot would go up to $250/hr. It also helped newbies realize there were a lot of existing mongers which tends to validate them, similar to what happens with ampreviews.
I think that if you got hot girls, but service inexperienced to do $200 or $180/half hr like C orgs, it would pull a lot of new guys into the market. Fantasy K Girls I think has the right idea at $220/hhr, $270/hr

I know some regular mongers only do 1/2 hr for new girls, then if repeat 1hr. Of course, orgs don't like 1/2 hours, because it wastes the half not booked.
It's classic marketing. In a new product market, new consumers and experienced consumers advise buying lower cost product initially, seeing if you like it, what extra features you will pay more for, etc. Then if your into it, upgrading.
Problem is that hot looking inexperienced girls tend to overcharge, have gps, etc. They also don't have stamina to do 10 guys a day. On the other hand, maybe we can get local girls, college girls to do it part time which is what happens in Toronto's legal nude jack shacks and Quebec outcall, both are very good value for $ with young good looking mostly white girls, but other races too.
