It's the industry for making, selling porn. So mainly cams and recorded porn.

the industry that sells porn needs sites that promote them - those affiliate sites are probably the only ones where you CAN promote porn but they are not limited to promote porn.
if they can sell rubbertrees with more profit than with selling porn they will sell rubbertrees.
if they can sell dating with more profit they will sell dating. if they sell 3D games with a better result they sell 3D games.
porn movies have changed from being a product to be a magnet for masses.
and as 100% of the income from the porn sales came from this sites this is the measure
we are talking about. the revenue made on this sites is MUCH higher as before as it is not limited to porn anymore.
the number of porn sales did not decrease - it is the same as before but with more sites that WANT to sell it (so less customers for each one) so this 0,26% of consumer budget spend for porn is just shared in between more sellers.
as those sellers are limited on the profits they can make with porn they will never be able to spend the same money for advertising as people who are not limited to just one product. they can not buy traffic as it is too expensive for them and they will not get affiliate traffic as affiliates can make more money to sell the traffic to people that can pay more for it.
what is so hard to understand on that?
