I think a list of ways to make money is close enough, really no reason to bust out all the ways a store can make money when your products aren't part of those income streams. If they sold hot dogs, it's an income stream....
What's more important is that 'average' buyer in a porn store didn't make $80-$120 profit for the store... that's what paysites do. Hell even a magazine had to send out for YEARS to make that, at least 3 times longer than a paysite has to - just to make the same money.
Hell, only VoD was hundreds of millions in sales online... it was kinda cake to make $30k-$50k a month from just a few scenes - what did they have in the 80's that did that? TONS of us tapped into this, some made a little, many made a shit ton... that's before $100's - $1000's per 'scene' other sites pay - these still sell like this today.
Most of the list above is still used today, by many people in our Industry. But you have to stack them all together just to cover one staff member and the company make profit.
