not true imo.

here is my hypothesis on this...

i believe a number of people who sign up for adult sites are college students, either living in the dorm or having their own apartment. once school lets out, they have to return home and fear browsing porn on their parents internet connection; hence the summer and xmas slow down.

not saying all people that sign up for porn are college kids, but thats what takes it down some % each year.

Ive seen this happen since 2002 for me. each summer starting around the end of May to the begining of September sales dropped a bit. Personally, this is when I like to roll out new sites because I konw if i can make it be successful during the summer months, it will rock all year round
