I wish it was the recession - some of it is of course - but we have pretty much destroyed this industry on our own. How many paying customers in the last couple of years have had their credit cards banged to hell after joining an adult paysite or one of these 'free' tubes run by WEG. tube sites, forums/rapidshare, torrents have further eroded the industry.

we're left with a much smaller potential market and there are far too many programs and DVD studios to support the market.

this time next year there will be half the webmasters there are now and many of the remaining will do so only because they don't have an alternative.
