i think you missmatch here something.
if you are right the big tubes would have nothing to do with the porn biz.
but if you ask people out there they will tell you exactly those names when you ask them who the porn biz is.
actually the tubes are also selling content - they just use another way to get paid.
users donīt come there because they want to see ads - they come for porn.
the difference might be the same as free tv and pay tv but both are in the tv-biz and both are attracting their customers with (mostly the same) movies.
porn production does not make a biz.
same as shoe production will not make a biz.
the big error here is that you can not cut a part of a very big circle out and call it the biz.
not even the whore on the corner is a standalone biz because she would not stay on this corner if there would not be another attraction that brings people there. she would not stand there if there would not be a way to come there and she would not know where to go with the customer when there would not be an hour-hotel in the near.
if you try to understand economy from this side you will see how complex it actually is and how many obviously not connected businesses are depending on each other.
if someone would not make the internet a biz - nobody would sell anything in there.
if someone else would not make delivery to itīs biz - the internet could not be used to sell physic goods. if someone would not make payment to itīs biz - the goods bought could not be paid. and if the first one that made internet to itīs biz would not get a competitor it would be still a very very small and limited market as it would be too expensive for the mass.
an economy is an unmanageable large organism in which one wheel turns into the other. and you can look at this machine down to the smallest wheel and you will find that it does not stop there that wheels interlock.
this is also where most misjudgements and management mistakes happen because many people look too much at this single wheel and not at the big machinery where the big trends and tendencies emerge.
if you learn to look at the big picture, you will see that almost every future development is predictable.
