If you want to blame someone -- look in the mirror. Pay-site porn set it self up and with DCMA schemes puts band-aids on cancer tumors.
We have always streamed our cam content. However, the public free chat content can be bootlegged (*stolen [if you will]) but the real content we sell is sold in private shows ''mano a mano'' (1on1). The real hardcore content cannot be downloaded en mass and used for a advertising traffic scheme.

Giving away free porn to 1,000 to get a $30 join, giving half that to "marketing". Started long ago. The only limit of what everyone gave away was cost. Remember the threads about a Gallery on The Hun costing more in B/W than it brought in sales. (1-100 was clicks, 1-1,000 are consumers).
Protecting copyright for 99% of the industry is pointless. It's just a brand and the product has little to define it from all the others. Porn has always been like this, it's people doing sex.
How can a porn product adapt, that can't be copied? The $1,000,000,000 question.
Roald is right. "it's about the live interaction anyways." Live interaction with who, some girl working in a studio in the Third world who could be anyone. Or someone you fell you know because she has an online persona?
Whales have to be made to fall in love, not hoped to. This to me is the future, small independent girls who can do what we have done and paid them a pittance for.
