There is no evidence of fraud being higher for online video than shipped product.
They claim the address verification system restricts fraud, but that is BS since it is very unreliable. We don't even use it at SEXTOY.com. We have other methods to reduce fraud. Also, a lot of fraud is not to buy the product, but to become an affiliate and enter fake orders to earn commission. In that case, a wrong shipping address doesn't matter either.
The bottomline is that there are many adult companies with under 1% fraud who sell online video, membership, etc. We should stop believing the hype about those businesses being high risk.
Not sure what you mean by "The fact that they are controlling this based on their own interests IS crazy. They do it with buying of all sorts of intangibles in adult"
