People don't need to know how things really are. It's not really a "secret", but it's also not something you want to shove in their face.
You may KNOW that the hot girl you want to fuck has to defecate every day. But you don't want to be TOLD that and think about it while you are licking her ass and pussy before fucking her. lol
And it doesn't matter that anybody can do porn. Anybody can pretty much do ANYTHING they want to try.
What matters is who is creative enough (or in the case of a lot of people...crooked enough) to make a living at it.
The cream will rise. The crap will sink.
I just don't see where giving out inside information on an industry to the general public does anything to make sales.
Which is why no other industry does that.
And in the entertainment industry (which we are a part of)...companies work hard to NOT let bad things get out to the general public.
A night out partying for Miley Cyrus is made to look like she is "out of control". When it's really not much different from any other young woman's night out at a club.
Putting a negative slant in a story can make anything you do look "bad". And I don't see where that's a good thing for the adult industry because we are already perceived as "bad" right out of the gate.
That's just my opinion as an entertainer and businessman.
If it's such a great idea for an industry to air it's dirty laundry to it's own customer base...then I guess every other industry in the world is doing it wrong except for Adult.

I understand what you are saying Robbie. Porn is an Industry where the old adage 'There is no bad publicity' does NOT apply. LOL But mainstream entertainment is filled with rags who proclaim this or that about Miley or Beyonce or whoever is hot at the moment. The papparrazi are always on the hunt for the next celeb scandal.
See, I look at it the other way. I am not so protective about the Adult Industry in general. Being "bad" is not "bad" it's "good". LOL The badder the better. So pornstars take drugs? Pornstars have wild crazy sex? Pornstars hang out with rock stars and celebs and are dirty, filthy little sluts and whores? Wow.....BRING IT ON BABY. This is what they are here for!
Also I do not see the insider secrets being discussed openly with the public as much as you do. I see Mike South as no more than a porn version of Rona Barrett (for the youngins out there - Rona WHO?). And on the actual business side, I can read Business Week or The Wall Street Journal to learn all kinds of insider things about Big Finance and Wall Street, for example.
