Everyone knows the adult industry is the net's biggest money maker BUT...

Everyone knows the adult industry is the net's biggest money maker so why isnt everyone and their grandma knocking on our doorstep trying to enter the biz? Is it an issue of morality? Or what?

I think there is definitely a moral issue/social stigma attached to porn.

I can understand some of the older people I know not knowing shit about computers....but when a college kid my age or younger asks me a simple computer question I just get a look of disbelief on my face.

You have seen the returns from dating and gambling right?
Porn might have the most traffic out there, but I'm willing to bet a few companies like ebay, match.com, amazon are more profitable than adult.

I went to a seminar and they gave us some facts on internet businesses.

Porn is the leading money maker on the internet.

Second on the list is web services (design and programming).

True.
I also had my moral doubts before I entered the industry.
