Your comment about me never achieving what the old porn moguls achieved, is simply put, wrong. I already have. You just do not realize it! My company currently has 4 offices around the world. We are likely growing that to 6-9 (depends on a few upcoming things) in the next 3 months. We are also planning to grow from roughly 500 to 800 employees in the next 6 months. (and btw, our german office has 2 floors, is built for 150 people, has 3 men's and 3 women's bathrooms with each 2 stalls, 2 urinals or 4 stalls respectively...)
You really have very little understanding of the size of online porn. You will possibly grasp it at some point, but clearly that point has not arrived yet.
It is always entertaining to read your comments. I think there is a lot of truth to them, and if you would accept that certain things are simply different than you think, you would likely actually have very good ideas come out of these rants. Sadly you are basing your comments on false facts which simply keep you from actually saying anything useful...
Lastly, never forget that good companies usually have plans outlined for the long term. I am no different. If you truly think what you see today is where I will stay, then you have completely underestimated the potential of what I have built so far.
I am looking forward to proving you wrong.

When I see you listed in a Rich List, then I will sit up and take notice.
Or your company. As it's all secret so I will take your statement under advisement.
I know exactly how big online porn is. It's the biggest supplier of porn ever. Never before has there been so many people consuming porn, never has it been so easy, never has the selection on offer been so vast.
But it's at best 0.1% BUYING porn. And that's a very generous estimate.
At the moment I've no doubt the big fish are gobbling up the little ones. But you're picking up falling ratios. When the small fish have gone, will you be able to stop the decline?
Growing at the rate you're growing and the decline of porn sales, be careful. A big fish needs a lot of food. That food might not be there and their declining revenues will become your declining revenues. Then what will you do?
Maybe close all the Tube sites.
What are the false facts I'm basing my argument on?
My argument is dead simple. Supplying a product for free that's easy to sell is costing sales.
