you are high or crazy or someone involved in the business of stealing content.
I dont read or care what RIAA or any org says, the numbers dont lie. MS / Bill gates who openly said he dont mind people using stolen copies of windows has now changed his tune, and I am not referring to MS shutting down tons of people the other day with modded xboxes.
The huge rapid decline in DVD sales will continue to rise as more people get to learn how to burn DVD's and internet connections become faster.
Porn itself is on decline for two reasons a) the huge amount of stolen porn all over the place b) the huge amount of people who got robbed while joining a site

Ok, before the Internet... Movies, Music, Porn, VHS (vs. DVD), Games, etc.. ALL went up and down. Some went out of business, new ones came on. Big players purchased small players, and then went belly up.
BEFORE Piracy... It was like a jacked up economy was doing it.
So if an Industry posts a loss this month/quarter, it's not piracy.. when in the same year, they posted a record profits. Shocking that it could something other than piracy, I know.
DVD sales are down, the technology is changing. It's not like VHS got killed because of Piracy, it got killed because of new technology. I can now buy or rent my DVD's online, burn to a DVD to own CD or stream it.. and now I can make digital copies. <-- bingo!
Ahhh digital music the replacement technology for CD's..
Which is growing, created more bands, more followings, exposed more people to more music ever in history... oh the big bad studios call it "piracy" but us people that produce music, know it's heaven.
Now back to my Porn companies that have posted record profits this year, during a major recession as well... not all porn companies are down, actually all of my major clients are up this year over any other year in business.
Difference is... you're still marketing like it was 10 years ago, they aren't.
