It would be nice to see the heavyweights in the industry AVN, LFP, and the major adult studios fund FSC or launch some organization of their own that smaller players could then join for a more reasonable amount of money.

Would you be willing to join them if they were a % fee based organization, and provided you not only with legal service, but something more solid as well? Like traffic, or hosting, or content, or any other tangible service or product that they could hire out to a 3rd party? And offered a newsletter that would keep you informed of all progress by them. What if they based your membership fees based on sales? Like say 1% of your sales would go to them, or a minimum or $50 or $100.00 per year.
And what if like CCBill, or any other large 3rd party processor had an option or setting where you could set aside 1% of all your sales into an account so when it reached the 50 or 100 mark you could then electronically wire it to FSC as your membership dues. But like I said maybe they could offer a little more in return.
I see what you mean by them charging $500 to file the same paperwork for you as they would a $50 dollar membership person. It's like them saying. "We have this form we're going to file for everyone. We can add your name for $500. and we can add that guys name for $50.00 and you both will get the same coverage."
It might be easier to do if they say well it's going to cost us $5000.00 to file and we'll divide that money evenly. So you all pay the same.
I can understand that a major corp should pay more than a single person, but the coverage is the same. If they were doing MORE for the major corp, then so be it. But they are not. It's the same form getting filed.
And again. I don't look down on the FSC. I have all the respect for what they stand for. I'm just asking these questions in hopes that one day we can all be united in this endeavor and not have so many lawyers telling us different things. Or even scaring us into paying money for services we may not even need.
