I have experience in both magazines and Internet content and though it is very similar there are major differences.
Firstly a magazine set needs to be far better than anything required on the Net. We can shoot around two magazine sets a day and five sets+viddeos a day for the Net. The money may be smaller but the production greater.
The other factor is the magazine market has a limit, for us, of 120 sets a year. The Internet could take 20 sets a week without dropping sales.
This market is fast changing. David Slaughter and Jon Silverstein are not buying up or doing "Blow outs" with companies making a lot of money. They are picking up companies and basically asset stripping them.
latinasojourn pointed it out very clearly, no matter what the webmaster likes, the price or the "Cool Dude" who sells the pictures, it's down to the surfer to give the final approval. If he does not click on the link, buy a membership or renew the content buyer does not have the money to rebuy, so they both suffer.
You and I have been providing porn for way to long to suffer that fate. The porn consumer has been buying our product for decades and as long as we keep up with the styles we will last. Then the shoe will be on the other foot, with a reduced supply the customers will have to pay more. Yes there will always be the newbie provider, but unless he shoots porn the surfer will buy he will not last.
And do not let them tell you the Net does not want our "Glossy Magazine" styles. Some of them telling me that 2 years ago are gone.
Keep at it and you will see the rewards, you just have to get your message over to people.
ps
I love your work.
