First I think its alot more than 10-50 million, I think we are told this so we feel powerless. Think about it , the adult industry is a 4 billion dollar industry, two things caused the explosion first was the vcr and then the internet.
I highly doubt out of that 4 billion dollar pie, online is a very small piece. Larry Flynt said his sites do 1.3 million a month in the xbiz interview, Danny Ash does 7 million together they do over 22 million.
You also have to figure there are at least 50,000 adult websites the big and the small .If they earned a avg of 6000 a year thats 180 million dollars and I am being very conservative but since we are so splintered we are weak. Adult webmasters have their little kingdoms and they rule with ego and cheapness. Good example IMPA imagine if everyone who made a dollar off adult donated $100 to them ,the amount of money would be huge they would have to fight the good fight.

Also mainstream uses recurring alot and they make it very hard to cancel a example the only way to cancel a audible account is to call I sat on hold for 45 mins to cancel.
