Washington D.C. (December 13, 2005) -- Cable TV operators often say their subscribers love the variety of programming available on Video on Demand.
However, a new report suggests that what they love most is love itself.
Adult Video News, a trade magazine serving the adult film industry, says that porn generates approximately 40 percent of cable's overall VOD revenue ($800 million of a $2 billion market.).The number is particularly impressive because some cable operators have just recently added adult films to the VOD lineup.
In addition, the magazine says that a whopping 55 percent of people who order VOD in hotel rooms select adult movies.
AVN estimates that the adult industry is raking in more than $12.6 billion a year, with one-third of that revenue coming from video sales and rentals.
The adult industry could get another boost in 2006 when new High-Definition TV DVD players hit the market. Many adult producers have been shooting their films in high-def in anticipation of the growing HD market.
