Many of us webmasters here at gfy keep asking that same question over and over in different threads - "What do people do in mainstream?" and we all know how to not only use google but to get listed on the first page too (with variable success).

I guess what most of us are asking is how to make money in mainstream in a manner that mirrors what we already know in adult. If not blogs, free sites etc... then what is the model?

You have to actually work, not throw up hosted tube clips, galleries, free sites, etc...

There is no comparison whatsoever.

If I may crawl inside the mind of Webmaster Advertising here, I THINK what his reply is saying is "Hey boy, you don't show enough gumption or smarts to figger it out yerself - which is what is required - so there's no comparison". Yes? :D

Because otherwise, if you are seriuos, then I disagree with you. There IS a comparison to adult in mainstream:

You still have to build websites
You still have to get traffic to said websites
You still have to SELL SOMETHING in order to make money (a service, information, a product, something)
You still need to write good sales text
You still need to display graphics effectively
You still need to capture emails and user info
etc

But what you CANNOT do is NOT THINK. Adult has a wonderful but frustrating "infra-structure" (or giant circle jerk) already built. So it's relatively "easy" to get traffic in large numbers to an adult website. It seems like with "mainstream" (really, anything non-adult) you have to be more creative. You simply can't post video to YouTube and get traffic.
