The economy is not helping, but I've been through a few recessions and porn has never been as badly effected as it is this time. My above post can also be attributed to the DVD industry and not just the Internet.
They are just as guilty at filling more shelves with more shit and are confounded the consumer is not buying and pointing to free porn as the reason. The last time I went to the Berlin show I was amazed at the prices most were paying and the crap they were selling, in most cases.
There is only so much you can do to flavor shit. In the end it's still tastes like shit.
However the moment someone comes out with a good, different, better product my ICQ lites up with people asking me how much to shoot it. Then they tell me they can get it cheaper. But when they launch it's no different from what they had.
The last clown to ask was after "Party Hardcore" types scenes for $10,000 or was it $20,000 I forget I was laughing too much. They never launched the site.
The future is clear, spend on the product and make it so good it's worth buying, worth promoting and worth taking off all the illegal sites.
