Online porn, all of it, is a Micro market - and always has been. Then we have the "pc" internet micro market, which 'some' access the micro market of free/piracy porn. It alone is NOT large enough to actually "damage" the rest of the Porn Industry - the free/piracy porn is so damn small, that the rest of the porn Industry doesn't notice it.

"The industry's decision to embrace VHS in the early 1980s, for example, helped to do away with Sony Betamax, despite the latter format's superior quality. Video rentals soared from just under 80 million in 1985 to half-billion by 1993" (United States Only)

Porn has ALWAYS moved with technology. VHS replaced theaters, DVD replaced VHS, Rentals hurt Stores, Internet killed the need for Stores, instant streaming are killing DVD's & rentals, and now Mobile is splitting the Market "again", a new type of rental/purchase of digital is happening and it's creating two Internet's as well.

The shift isn't bad, it isn't killing our Industry, it has been and will continue to EXPAND it!

Adult Video Sales and Rentals: 1992 ($1.6B in revenue) and in 2006 ($3.62B in revenue) peak was in 2005 at $4.28B

Magazines were going to shit well before Internet porn took off, porn DVD's sales grew while the Internet grew, technology has split the revenues of our Industry up more ways than we can count..BUT IT HAS GROWN! It's not just a game for a "handful" of dirty old men anymore like it was through the 80's, it's much more world wide now, much bigger than ever, and growing EVERY YEAR!

Blame whatever you like...it will never fix YOUR problem. End of the day if you're bitching, you're just broadcasting that you don't get todays porn market(s) and can't handle the business at todays level.
