There is none for the producers.
Now the actual entertainer/performers in porn can and do profit from piracy.
Makes them more "famous". So they get more money dancing in strip clubs, escorting, and doing live cams.
That's about the only analogy I can see for the porn industry.
Unless you got a group of 4 or 5 girls together, shot a ton of super hot hardcore movies with them, gave the movies away for absolutely free on the net...and then personally took them on "tour" as a Feature Package to strip clubs in cities across the world.
Then you could do all the things that feature dancers used to do...have a "gimmick table" (or swag as people call it) to sell signed 8x10's, charge guys to take pics with the girls, etc. (and of course I'm sure the girls would be doing some extracurricular "work" after hours as well).
Even at that...it wouldn't make the kind of money that rock stars do with merchandising.
But it would damn sure be as big of a headache as touring with a rock band! lol
I could just imagine the nightmare of alcohol and pills that would turn into.
No, the porn industry is supposed to sell...PORN.
That's the insanity of piracy and giving away full scenes for traffic to nowhere.
