Nice work.
Also, do you not view 800% marked up sugar water and popcorn as an upsell, you funny thing?

Seriously are you really in marketing or just kidding us. Because you're not very good.
We sell a product as flavored water and then the user finds out it plain tap water. The buyer of a Coke knows it's a Coke and makes the decision. Also he's not tricked into buying it. The product is marketed by professionals. Clearly something you don't understand.

for the millionth time, no correlation between piracy and theatrical box office.
people go to big theater to see big movie in 3D, this not for pirate.
cost of movie ticket soars, people pay more, figures larger.
people no go big theater for porn movie, so no bearing on industry you post on industry board.
thread= FAIL
thread= TIRED

You do know this is way beyond his level?
*******************
Piracy isn't what made sales so hard to get. It's the industry itself. Losses due to piracy are small and always been something we could withstand like shop lifting.
What we can't stand is people giving away for free a better product, except resolution, than we try to sell. TGPs harmed the magazine industry industry because why buy a magazine when the Internet gave away millions of pictures for free.
We skimmed a little bit of that business in the process, the majority of it went to the free model. The Adult Internet could only see the increase. Good business so no complaints.
Then as speeds increased and hosting costs lowered the Adult Internet decided to give away video clips. As the costs lowered it gave away more. AND ratios suffered, but an excuse was found and we escalated. Until the birth of Tube sites.
Now a Tube site is a better place to get your porn than a paysite.
A movie theatre is a better place to get your movies than a download. The better comparison would be between Downloaded movies and DVD sales and rentals.
But our marketing genius Damian doesn't understand that. It's above his pay level.
Damian = Failure.
