Not everyone is hurting, after we made radical changes to our traffic models things have been going from strength to strength, and income is back on the up. Instead of crying on the boards all day actually take proactive steps to improve your product/marketing/methods.

Very true. But it doesn't change the fact that stolen content put up in all it's glory for free pretty much decimates the market place. Especially for some of the bigger companies whom have put so much money into shooting content.
The "adapting" that I'm seeing many companies do is to stop spending money on new stuff and basically circle the wagons relying on dwindling rebills to try to ride it out.
What WE are doing is finding new revenue streams. Paysite sales have hit the ceiling for me. They could of and would of been enormous at this point...but I can't afford to cry about it.
So we "adapt" with making more money with Claudia-Marie on paid camshows. We also have an Iphone app coming out for her. A dozen other things we're doing to NOT have to depend on paysite sales...because despite all the talk, the economy + piracy = sales down across the board for paysites.
