Porn hasn't reached it's peak, but the work vs. reward wise we are way over the peak....well, it went downhill from the beginning. There is still alot of money in porn, but today it takes alot more than a few years ago to make the same $$$$$ every month.

30k/month 10 years ago was as easy as learning how to build a dozen sites with a few galleries each with a crappy html editor.

Nowadays, you'll have to invest alot more to make the same. Have a look at what's hot at the moment: All those tube style sites are bandwidth hogs, building one needs at least some solid knowledge about programming and scripts.

Same for paysites, if it's not a small niche, you either need extreme high quality pics like MetArt, Femjoy, etc. or loads of videos, everything has to be exclusive, you have to update several times a month or even a week. 10 years ago one content CD and a few stream plugins made a big baller paysite.

The industry grew up. With a well positioned company, you will still be a big earner, but for freelancers it definately got harder.
