Exactly. .xxx guys aren't idiots. They are making bank and they have some smart people behind them that know who's who in the industry and who to go after. The people that can make a difference in .xxx being a success or a failure have been given the chance to get on board early with a sweetheart deal in the hopes they will lead the way for others to follow.
In the phone conversations I had with them I was impressed. I wasn't sold and wasn't going to join them but I was impressed. Before we sold (ie when i was still relevant) I had a number of big programs email me asking what I was going to do about .xxx. I told them all I wasn't getting on board and discussed why. Many of them were on the fence or leaning towards getting on board after their talks with them. I'm sure many of the older programs/sites that don't spend time on forums have secured their .xxx domains.
