Let me compare it to model photography (which I have been for 23 years). In the last 2 decades, thanks to digital photography, the number of photographers have exploded. People in the photography business are complaining that digital photography has destroyed the business. I don't believe that, it transformed the business. We are seeing creative work that we did not see in the 90's. "Professional" photographers are outdone by hobbyists and it is driving an evolution. Business-wise, the competition is huge, but people are still making a living. It's only a lot harder to enter and stay in the race. But making money is seldomly easy.
I'm very new to the pornography business (as a creator. hehe), but I have the feeling that the same is true for porn. In the last 20 years, we have seen such an amazing revolution, from internetporn to VR. People are constantly looking for the new niche, which again adds to the porn world.

Not sure if you're referring to live models or manufactured ones. The biggest difficulty in porn is knowing the niche you're shooting, the buyer will know it and spot a fake quickly, people looking for a new niche rarely buy into it and you can't base a business on the few who buy, then handling the models. Porn models come in different forms, the few who know what they're doing and let the director be in charge, those who think they know what to do and do it their way and those new to modelling who are clueless and need directing.
