For many years, the adult entertainment industry was on the vanguard of technological innovation. Companies in the pornography have for years used the latest technologies to distribute their content, beginning with VHS tapes in the 1980s and evolving with the birth of the Internet in the 1990s.
However, in many ways, the adult entertainment industry is facing many of the same problems as the music and movie industries.
Now that all media content can be digitized, reduced to a series of ones and zeroes and transferred instantly over the Internet, issues of piracy and falling revenue streams are beginning to hamper the pornography business.
?It?s hard to sell a product [porn] that a lot of people don?t think they should have to pay for anymore,? Allison Vivas, chief executive of Arizona-based adult entertainment company Pink Visual, said during a panel discussion at the Mesh technology conference in Toronto on Wednesday.
