Define porn industry?
The only thing that I can think of that declined over the last 10-15 years is things old school Videos/DVDs, mass content producers and smaller affiliates and paysites.
But on the other side more people are watching porn today than ever before. The big remaining porn networks, ad networks, traffic networks, tube site owners, media buyers, amateurs and independent models, cam models, dating sites, etc. combined make a LOT more than what was being made in the 'porn industry' 15 years ago. There is no decline, there is an increase.
You think that just because less people buy porn dvds or less people per impression buy memberships that the industry is declining. But you forget there are so many new parts of the porn industry now that you apparently don't know about, or don't want to know about, that make the money now and you just don't want to believe it, because you can't see it.
Like thommy said, for example all those amateurs and independent models alone are making more money combined today than all the porn affiliates back in the day made combined.
I don't understand why you fail to believe this when people that are actually part of today's 'porn industry' tell you so.
