Like what?

It's all very well to sit there and say "do something about it" but what do you suggest. The Industries reaction to Tubes was to make 1,000s of Tube sites, give away long previews and often host them. That's not going to stop the pirates, it only teaches surfers Tubes are their answer.

Yes the industry needs to change, how is the big question. It needs to be change the buyers like and will get them back.

The big difference is that with a shoe, the person who steals the design still has to pay to manufacture, sell and ship the shoes. With digital media like porn you can duplicate it for free with two clicks of a mouse.

If ever copy of a porn movie you made cost you money, there would be a whole lot less pirating going on.
Anyone who compares designers copying top designers with the pirating on porn sites has not got all the facts. I worked in both porn and dressmaking and trust me the difference is like comparing a chicken with a cow because they both live on a farm.
