If we are in free fall, we should have hit rock bottom already, yet there is still billions being spent each year... where is the free fall?
What I learned in 23 years of porn business from magazines, 8mm tapes, vhs, dvd to web and mobile is: nothing really changed. People still like and look for porn and you can earn from that pool.

The tricky part is keeping up with 'feeling' consumer trends in existing and emerging markets, being a country, a technology, a device, a billing method, business model, content itself, pricing, niches, easy of use, customer appricitiation, laws or an old fashioned AIDA. Next to a million other possibilities or a combination of previous mentioned factors.
