He's a very smart guy. But I think you're right. From the outside looking in it must seem just like that Walmart analogy.

And yeah, if Brazzers paysite was just so damn exceptional (and in many ways it is) that nobody could compete with it and everybody in the world wanted to join it...then that analogy would be perfect.

But Walmart doesn't come to town and put things in it's store that are exclusively licensed to others and give it away for free. For instance Walmart doesn't steal Midas brake pads and give them away for free (which would put Midas out of business) and they don't go to Guitar Center, steal a bunch of guitars and give them all away for free.

This isn't Walmart. This isn't even competing. This is theft and the destruction of the entire paysite/affiliate business model.
