Will we get back the customers lost because of the credit crunch? Don't bank on it.
Why am I wrong? Porn is a vice, it's one of those things people give up last... like cigarettes, booze & drugs. So it would make sense that the porn decline didn't really kick into gear until people started really running out of money and had to focus on survival. Plus, like I was saying, those that aren't broke yet are no doubt trimming costs anywhere they can. I know I've been cutting costs for over a year. Nothing is untouchable. I cut when and where I need to, just like anyone else.... porn simply is no longer in a lot of people's budgets. Especially when there are tons of it available for free. That makes it an easy decision to not spend money on it. And you can thank the Republicans. Cutting off unemployment bennies severed the last likely disposable income people had to spend on vice.
