Well, you might want to start by subscribing to the trade mags for the adult industry. That will bone up on who is sueing who and for what. That should take care of the education part of your request. Here is part two...

In the adult industry, the boards, trades, seminars and the rest are little more than sabre rattling. A lot of we are going to do this, and you are in for that. There have been many lawsuits, and copyright complaints FILED over the years.

There have been many of these lawsuits that have been dragged out for months or years. Costing thousands, if not tens of thousands, of dollars. However, when it gets to the final day in court, the verdict, or right before they go TO court.... seems they always fold and settle in some non-disclosed agreement.

Now, while you think big deal. Not successful. Did not cost me $150,000.00 per video. They can simply drain you dry with the legal system, motions, flying to where the fuck ever, or counter motions and legal fees.

Additionally, I would bet good cash money most of the people running tubes have not set up their business properly. Including an LLC, seperate business bank accounts, keeping your monies seperate, and so on. So they are just begging to be personally sued into oblivion by a company who can outspend you.

Now.... all of that said,.... would you take the risk tootsie?
