Have porn shop suffered loss of customers since the internet? sure. If there wasn't any internet would they be getting as many customers in their shops as there are people surfing for porn? No. Not even close.

if the local McDonald's gave out a coupon for a free Big Mac good for durring a 1 week period. The number of Big Macs that McDonald's made durring that week is going to be more than it was the week before or the week after. I thinkw e would all agree if that McDonald's though that 100% or even 50% of those that got a free big Mac were going to PAY for one the next week we would think they were stupid. The fact is McDonald's didn't LOSE any customers the next week it's just the vast majority of those geting their free Big Mac were never going to be customers in he first place. But maybe just maybe by giving out those free Big Macs, McDonald's gained a few new customers and perhaps those that didn't become new customers managed to order fires and a coke with their free Big Mac so McDonald's made money off them anyways.
