26% less revenue in the first 9 months of 2011 compared to the same timeframe in 2010
and they're happy to have their loss reduced to only 4.8 million Euro
their shares are at 29 euro cents

Yes, in 2011 they like most porn shops are on the decline. I did point it as an indication of what was made offline prior to online giving it away for free. Your point is?
Comparing retail with an advertising platform, good point. Are they just an advertising platform?
I'm pointing out the enormous amounts of money made prior to the rush to give it away for free. People are for ever comparing what the production end of porn makes and conveniently ignore they're comparing their retail sales, with a porn production companies figures. The 2 are not comparable.
However the quoting of Xhamster as a mega porn company wasn't started by me. Mike brought them up, I merely showed him a little part of the money made in porn prior to online porn. You will know of porn shops in Germany in prime locations, locations that cost a lot of money. This was repeated around the world, because of the turnover and profit.
Yes
all pre recorded porn selling is today in decline. giving it away for free has devastated it.
I'm one of the lucky ones by being able to make enough in porn to retire. Many will not be so fortunate.
Yes Damian let's not let facts get in the way. As so few online porn companies have facts to base the propaganda on. Facts would leave us with so little to talk about.
