To be honest I think the adult industry needs to start lobbying in order to get into areas were it's currently not allowed.

Take the UK for instance, hardcore porn only became legal in like 2006 under a new R18 certification. Consumers need to confirm they are 18 before being allowed to purchase. Thus selling online isn't allowed, only in licensed sex shops.

THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE.

It's fucking stupid that I can run a paysite in the UK and sell content but I can't ship a fucking DVD to the same customer.

Then there's VOD stuff like Boxee that the industry needs to tap into.

Get a chinese manufacturer to make a box that can accept streams, create an api for paysite owners to stream content, sell the box to a customer with say 3 months free viewing.

Just a brain fart but you've got to think outside the box. There's not a lot of creative things you can do with porn except exploring new niches or stupid ideas like 3D.

Don't beat a dead horse and expect it to go faster.
