I will preface this comment by stating I am not an attorney, and by law am not allowed to dispense legal advise. No attorney-client relationship is established or implied. All opinions are based upon my own personal knowledge and experience. Any comments made are my own personal opinion. One should always consult with a licensed attorney, and not rely on opinions found on an adult message board. That being said:
Sorry, I don't read it that way. They declined that comment, the reason is really irrelevant. Besides:

Three commenters commented that the record-shifting requirements under Sec. Sec. 75.2(a) and (b) are impermissibly burdensome. According to the commenters, primary producers would resist turning over records that contain trade secrets, such as the identities of performers. The Department declines to adopt these comments. The D.C. Circuit Court clearly held in American Library Ass'n v. Reno that the record-keeping requirements were not unconstitutionally burdensome. Any primary producer who fails to release the records to a secondary producer is simply in violation of the regulations and may not use the excuse that the records contain alleged trade secrets to avoid compliance.
