Markham as with many here, are content people. The unfortunate truth about today's adult site is that is content is not the king as it was. It takes much more to convert your audience and to keep it.
Unfortunately, when one only sees what they see through the lens of a camera, they tend to miss the truck about to run them over.
I have no opinion of Markham one way or the other, I've never met him and I don't judge people by their board entries however, to be successful today, you need a lot more than just content as I had stated in my article for AVN last summer. (

I do know Peabody and he is a personal friend so given that, I thought I'd throw in my two cents.
