I think the idea that it is impossible for the upstart to make money is partially a result of those who are established want to protect their corner of the market. I can't cite anything in particular, and of course no one is going to stop you from starting a site, getting trades and selling other things with sex as the vehicle.. and very few people are blacklisted because they are so good at stealing business from the other big timers..

..but more than that, I think the vast difference between the biz 6+ years ago and now means that while the money is there, it isn't immediately there.. and for 98% of people who turn to porn as a get rich quick scheme are quickly disappointed and curse the industry for not having profit opportunities, which is only valid when the entrepeneur has no originality, no goals and no time/effort invested.
