Really? You need to consider that the size of Mainstream is 100 times the size of adult, so of course you will see more businesses being sold and bought in mainstream.

Adult companies dont sellout because you really don't get more than 8-12 months the revenue here. There is no reason to sell your business for 8-12 months the revenue if the site is stable. In mainstream you get years of the revenue. + It's hard to sell adult businesses because there is no one in mainstream that wants to touch them, and no one in adult who has the cash to buy'em-

MySpace is valued at $5 billion!
YouTube was bought for $1.65 billion!

Here is to consider if you want to play in mainstream:

Publicity
Advertising

Personally i don't know which one is harder, I'm working on my
mainstream sites now.. i'll report back to you guys later!
