Make adjustments, resize your expectations, work within the new limitations and realities OR do what Paul has done: quit and wax poetic about when porn was worth $10,000+ a scene in profit.

Your problem Paul - and this is true of many old school producers and porn people - is you got stuck. You did not adapt. You held onto your 1990's and before view of what porn was 'worth'. It is what it is NOW. Deal with it, adjust, make MONEY. Everything else is discussion.

Webmasters think the value of content is what it's worth to them. $300 for a solo girl set and video. Or $4,000 + still owning it.

Or $2,000 for a boy/girl set and video. Or $20,000 + still owning it.

The problem was most online thought porn started and ended there, even though is was obviously not true. They never really looked to ways of making a scene they bought in for $300 worth $3,000 with a few phone calls.

So we came to the decision, why shoot exclusive for someone who think our content is worth $300 a scene, when we have a group of people who KNOW it's worth $1,000 to $2,000, for a non exclusive license. And run the risk of site owners making a phone call.
