Porn will always survive. Not as it is today just as a slim down industry or a very changed one.

The Internet part of adult spent a fortune throwing up free porn, then the consumer did the same and the rot was in.

However when free is better than paid, why pay for it? Until the paid part spends more on the product and less on giving it away the rot will stay.

I feel some will step up on what they sell. They will realise the days of selling just videos are coming to an end, even for people like Manwin with their massive traffic. If ratios are getting worse for you Cashcows they are getting worse for everyone. So change has to happen. Even those supported by adverts will find ratios suffering.

Then the new wave will come in and realise that those with something worth buying are the ones selling.
