There's only ome direction to go.

Put up audited accounts of the publicly owned porn businesses. Otherwise it's all speculation.

I know one United Kingdom-based adult retailer, with over 140 high street stores in the UK. In 2007-2008, had an annual turnover of £117.3 million.

That's one chain doing close to $200 million 2007-2008.

$1,448,000 per store. Adult based stores would mark up 300% on average. On DVD they bought in for $6 and sold out at $60 to $70.I know that as I sold to them. Good thing was the volume they once bought in.

Now show comparable from an online porn company. I won't make it tough and say an online UK based porn company. That would be nasty.

Do you seriously think Manwin do that and Fabian picked it up, allegedly, for $100 million?

Yes your problem will be finding online porn companies who have accounts. No problem getting a picture of the wealth of offline.
