I think the key these days it being able to do what's needed when needed and have an array of skills rather than focusing on one area of the business.

Versatility is the key in the current market to be honest and seems to be working for us!

Of course affiliate managers are needed as there's no doubt that affiliates are still a key role in the porn industry but I think those affiliate managers need to be able to juggle jobs and have a true understand of all areas.

Maybe in larger companies you can get away with pure affiliate managers who do nothing else but I think for us smaller guys its important to help out in all areas. We've got 18 staff here and most of them are able to deal with different areas but I tend to be the one that's used as immediate contact for affiliates and the like.

All in all, just adapt with the times as everyone has been and all will be well.

That's all my opinion anyways ^_^.
