What was their alternative option?
Where are they now and what are they doing?
Are they still shooting?
Are they still involved porn ?
We know what Paul is doing, but what about the others?

Most online shooters are gone. Many of the offline shooters are gone.
Some are still working in adult, many are retired like me on the money made in the good years. Some have moved into other areas of photography. wedding, hotels and even wild life shooter in Africa. Surprised when I saw him on National Geographic.
I'm hoping to get a package of content soon from one of those who didn't shoot for exclusive liceses.
Not too proud. Just not going to give up higher paid work to shoot lower paying work. If we had gone the custom route it might of made us a bit more. As the money we made selling from the stores was often more for a scene than what was offered for custom, we declined.
Giving up time is the problem. We could do a casting in Prague with a good chance of shooting 10 small "Readers Wives" sets of 30-50 images for $300 non exclusive. Than many would ever earn in a day shooting exclusive. $3,000 for magazines. Then stores sales and the chance of finding a girl who was worth $3,000 a set.
This is just some of many who turned up on a casting. And the quick sets we hot of them.

Shot in a hotel room or our apartment in Prague, value of the set $3,000+ takes an hour. Give up that to shoot ATK 5 whole scenes for $1500.
A shooters commodity is also his time.
Do you give up doing something that will earn you more, to do something that will earn you less? Neither do other people.
You haven't answered me.
So selling the same content that was in a paysite to offline areas of porn and making a huge profit on the content in offline. Is the wrong thing to do?
Can you please.
