I lived in Seattle for a decade, I know the ins and outs.

I mean look at those companies and think how seamlessly they do generally work together. I have Eero routers (Amazon) around my house, I control them seamlessly from my Samsung Android device and my girlfriends iPhone to watch netflix, both devices have Uber. Now think about what it takes as some who makes content to distribute and sell that content in this space, it is anything but seamless. We use elevatedX and NATS, the missed integration opportunities between them, billing, cams, dating and adnetworks is staggering. And that is money left on the table because of disorganization, dishonesty and overprotected fiefdoms. Business is business, but this industry is much worse at it and it costs us.
One of the biggest problems we have in this biz, is that so many are not involved with the creation of the product. They could care less. I also do a lot of work in the film business, and everyone from the grips, to the drivers, to the producers, to the actors, to the studios are very concerned about making good movies. Of course, there are sharks and thieves, but not like this biz where the cost of entry and commitment is about zero and we apparently tolerate theft. Their ain't no such thing as free porn. End of.
