AVN if anyone, should be shitting bricks right now. Once the DVD industry is finally toast, and that day is coming, you guys are up shit creek without a paddle.

Actually the consolidation of the magazines is the best thing that has happened in a long time. There is absolutely no reason to be printing 5 magazines at a time when print media is in the toilet. Newspapers are closing down.
In order to survive and thrive there will be plenty of painful adjustements made, but I am confident that we will continue to serve the industry as we have for the past 25 years - for another 25 years. I am not sure if I'll be there in 25 years, but I know for a fact that AVN is not going anywhere - the brand is to strong.
You also must realize that certain segments are doing mujch better than DVD and Digital Media. Novelty is the largest growing segment - with over 150 exhibitors at AVN Adult Novelty Expo last month, ANE will continue growing.
Paddle, we dont need one - shit - please....
