IMO the next big phase in web erotica will be when the really pro producers start producing for the internet (instead of the retail DVD market).
high speed is becoming more commonplace, and because of that surfers are requiring more and more sophisticated and high quality content.
recently i say some trailers shot by "jules jordan". now this guy is not well known in the microcosm of GFY, but the way he shoots and edits video is just smokin' hot...i mean the guy is an artist, and obviously a quality nut.
and this stuff is slowly rolling out onto the web as worldwide connectivity speeds up---and then the guys that are shooting the cookie cutter motel 8, girl on the paisley bedspread shit will be basically out of business.
there really is no substitution for artistic talent, you either have the eye, or you don't---it's just that the speed did not support artistic talent---but it's coming and fast...and it will be a whole new ball game when it is widespread.
and porn glossy magazines? and adult bookstores? in 5 years they will be mostly gone.

You're right, but this market is changing and changing fast.
The surfer is getting more educated by the day and once he's joined a Hustler, Score or Private type site he's not going to be happy with what some offer. Would you be happy to go from driving a Saab to driving a Lada?
These guys have years of experience, talent and deep pockets. They also have 1,000s of gigs of content that few Internet sites can compete with. Did I say only 1,000s? Where are all the Gonzo sites going to be when they are competing with the Evil Angel studio?
But it's not just the quality of photography that matters, it's as you point out the eye and the most important thing is how the shooter motivates and relates to the model. This is the most imprtant thing in porn.
It's nice to see me being shot down for being arrogant for what Eva and I have achieved. But show me one of these companies shooting solo girl sets that make $3,000 on a regular basis.
And remember the surfer does not give a shit if I'm your best buddy or an arrogant shit. The top companies have learnt that and buy on the porn quality.
All I'm saying is respect the product you offer, more than the numbers who see it and you will see an improvement in your income.
