My prediction: DATING and INTERACTIVE PORN sites will be the new species that will rise out of the extinction landscape wrought by Rapidshare, Youporn, tube sites, and Megarotic/megaupload. This is already happening and it will accellerate even faster as dating sites starting giving out AUTHORIZED and LEGAL full length canned porn materials. The new paradigm shift will be "canned" ie., prerecorded porn VERSUS CUSTOM aka live/customized porn/adult entertainment. Custom wins. Interactivity wins.

Just my More iterations will come in 2008. It will reach its "proven" iteration in 2009. And complete seachange by 2010.

Just a prediction based on current trends, don't get at me.

But with the rise of such free sites as YouPorn (the YouTube of the pornography business), the online subscriber model is imploding. DVD sales are plummeting too, and the adult video business is actually laying off workers (no pun intended). YouPorn is now the most-visited adult site in the world, and its traffic is growing at nearly 40% a month."
