Paul, I don't think you get it.

What's that old saying, "Buy when there is blood on the streets."

Well, there is blood on the streets and Manwin is buying. Manwin is buying up as much real estate as possible. They are probably turning record profits, and they don't care about if you are making money or not.

After they control the best real estate and most everyone has closed shop or sold out, who do you think is going to literally online porn? Short of some niche mom and pop operations, it's going to be a few large companies running everything.

It doesn't matter who Nathan is or isn't. As much as I don't like the tube side of their business, and as much as it sometimes infuriates me to no end, it doesn't matter, they have changed the game. And while I don't advocate working with them, you can either complain from the bench or get in the game and either do your own thing to secure your place in a changing industry, or try to work with them and the current trends and see where that takes you.

I don't like it as much as you, but I'm smart enough to know the game has changed and I need to change too, so I have. I'm adapting to the situation and implementing plans for my future. What I personally think of Nathan or the tubes at this point is irrelevant. We're all here to make money, and while this business model may be hurting a lot of us, it's fuck or walk. Get in where you fit in or go plant flowers with your wife.
