Let me help you:
We took measures to protect our content against piracy as well as a lot of innovative ideas in the members area that create a ton of interactivity that can't be stolen.
The result: Claudia-Marie.Com is one of the handful of paysites left that is still making great sales and has members rebilling for YEARS.

Also: Live Cams are doing BETTER THAN EVER. Hundreds of millions of dollars. Claudia Marie is making $500 a day just working 2 hours a day on Streamate.

Also: Prostitution and Strip Clubs The money there is BETTER THAN EVER

No...the economy never slows down peoples need for their vices. Alcohol sales are up. Movie theater sales are up. Overall adult industry sales are up (cams and dating)

Only one thing is down...Paysites & DVD Sales. Why? Because they are available for FREE on a thousand different pirate sites.

This ain't brain surgery. I don't understand why you can't see what's right in front of you. But I guess if you were actually in this business and looked at the numbers I do, then you would grasp it.
Very well said and pretty much sums it up esp "Alcohol sales are up." The last thing to go even ahead of food is beer and/or alcohol.

HOWEVER, you are BOTH right this time.

This is also true. When money is truly tight, the vast majority, 99% are not going to be joining an adult membership site at $30 a month.

But tubes certainly play a way bigger role in hurting sales than the economy as they affect so many more people.
