It's a tremendous hit for the industry to overcome and anyone who refuses to admit that the pay site industry as a whole has been hit hard by the freebies is either in denial or talking out of their ass.

Well, I think as an average that is probably in the ball park.
I think there are probably some mainstream porn guys down 75-90%. Especially those who do not update their sites, and have 2001 types of content and formats. I would say many, not all, of the fetish guys (on the whole) could be 10-50% depending on their niche, and if they are still producing new content and marketing.
I think some things are way up, and some things way down. Some are not hit as hard as others, but I do believe on the whole most are probably hit somewhere. Perhaps they are growing, but instead of growing at 300%, they are now growing at 10%. I think the hardest hit is mainstream porn, and in particular, those who no longer invest in updates and new content.
