Here's what I said.

"VR will be acclaimed as the new saviour, then go down in flames. Too expensive to get right. And too cheap to make an attempt.

Continued decline in revenues from paysites."

I assumed that people could fill in the dots and see sense. But for you I will explain the problems. The cost of getting it spot on in production will be so high the additional sign ups won't warrant the extra expense. Too cheap and everyone and their brother will have it and it will be like HD on every site.

The biggest problem is free VR porn.

kickass.cd/usearch/VR%20porn/

extratorrent.cc/search/?search=VR+porn&new=1&x=55&y=18

pornhub.com/video/search?search=virtual+reality+sex

It's hardly begun and already people can download it for free. Even if it is the next great event, why pay when it's everywhere for free?

And that's why porn's income will continue to drop as it has done for years. Dating is dropping as it's moving over to apps like Tinder and Grinder. Cams will drop for most in the industry as it moves over to independent girls who will market themselves personally a lot better than dumping traffic on a site and hoping.

It's been a great fun ride for most of us and I've enjoyed every moment and made enough to not work. But the problem is the future will be harder and the only ones who will survive are those who have something that can't be given away and paid for by ad revenue.
