High speed internet is becoming available to new market every day, and new payment options to bill in new countries are emerging. There is a lot more money being spent in total on porn today, than there were 10 years ago, it's just reaching different pockets. Those who didn't adapt, are crying about it before deciding to die instead.
Saying There is a lot more money being spent in total on porn today, than there were 10 years ago. is foolish I can prove you wrong in minutes. Include offline and make a case to show us. Offline sales moved to online and this killed offline as I knew it. Today there's nothing of offline left to kill. so the killing of sales is online.

Free porn is here to stay. It will kill sales.

The question now is how to adapt, can we adapt and is adaptation going to be profitable.

1. Open a Tube and/or sell traffic to what's left.
2. Promote Webcam and Dating, until they go free.
3. Produce porn that's do great people have to buy it.
4. Retire.
5. Move to mainstream.
6. Get a real job.
7. Sell to the new countries, India, China, Ghana etc.
8. Got any better ideas?

Nextri the last question was for you. Can you explain more about the new countries part. The actual new countries we're meant to sell to. Because with the coming crisis of the Euro, some of the old countries might not have as much to spend on porn.
