I can't think of any other industry (maybe journalism) besides the adult video industry that has reached a point where their products are more in demand then ever (the most amount of internet traffic on porn sites than ever) while devaluing the product so much that probably the smallest percentage of consumers ever in the past 10 years is willing to actually pay anything for it.

Many of the reasons have already been stated, most people recognize it, yet many are still unlikely to put any efforts in mitigating the damage.
I think the free *method* worked. I think it has now peaked and is on the downword spiral.

But when every facat of the industry is in a do or die situation... who's winning?

Kudos to AdultEUhost, AsianDivaGirlsWebDude and everyone else who brought up the issues. Mr. Deiz, Sara, etc.

Did you read those posts on DP... freeloaders were making $300 - $400 per day flipping stolen content. They took that *free* model and capitalized.

Kudos for CCBill making that last announcement... https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1071496

Imploding, I mean self destructing to where nothing worth monetizing is left.

What about a monopoly?
