Welcome back to 2007 ..has this happened or is it happrning now?
For me these statments stood out
"Rather than aiming to download high-quality movies either permanently or temporarily, it seems that the majority of adult viewers are quite happy with short spurts of viewing, using relatively low-resolution streaming protocols."
"Customers do not want to watch entire movies," Cohen said. "They want to watch scenes. They might watch a scene once or twice, then they move on - but they come back to the site over and over again."
"
Of course, there's a critical difference here which we'll try and elucidate tastefully. With rare exceptions (for which medical treatment is now available), most porn viewers don't want to watch an adult movie in its entirety, since their functional purpose is unlikely to stretch to 90 minutes or more. With rare exceptions (Battlefield Earth springs to mind), most mainstream viewers do want to watch movies in their entirety. Nonetheless, the trend seems worth noting."
"
Those who don't want to be anonymous may well be cheapskates. According to a recent NPD Group study, 60% of the content on file sharing networks is porn movies."
"
Cohen predicts a rapid demise for 'conventional' adult sites which aim to achieve a recurring monthly subscription for a particular set of content. "Membership sites for adult content are dying," Cohen said. "The consumer is sick and tired of having to pay every month. We get so many emails from people saying 'Please cancel', and we have to send a mail saying 'There's nothing to cancel'."
