Mainstream or Porn? If you had a choice.

If you had a choice to make as much as you do now whether it was porn or mainstream which one would you choose?

Mainstream all the way, no COPA , 2257, political bullshit or having worry about what other people do that will effect my industry like graphic spam and fucking the customer over. I love 90% of the adult business but that 10 % can be so painful. lol

I would sell everything I had today if I thought I could make a living in Mainstream..... I have never liked porn, never looked at it except to work with it....... and I CERTAINLY don't want my kids going to school and telling people what I do. THAT is the only part that weighs on my mind....... what my KIDS will have to deal with.

I like most all of the people and MOST have been extremely good to me, a few bumps here and there, let's just say my share of them...... but all in all, my experience has been a good one. But if I had my CHOICE, I would certainly be in mainstream...... just wouldn't have a clue where the hell to start.

I'd rather do mainstream. Porn seems to attract the lowlife, scammers, and low class degenerates. Not saying everyone is like that, but you cant argue that there is not a high percentage of those people in this business.

Mainstream.

After 8 years it seems that more people than ever think the best way to make money is by screwing someone: often other webmasters. I'm tired of spending a major part of my time and energy constantly looking over my shoulder.

NO SHIT!!!!

I like certain aspects of this industry, but the way the scamming and shit has been going, it's getting harder and harder to know who you can trust and who you can't.

I am not really ashamed of what I do, it isn't illegal and there are FAR worse things I could be doing. And I don't really want to STOP doing porn, but as someone else mentioned, I'd much prefer to work in Mainstream and have my kids tell people THAT is what I do and do the porn thing as well...... but not make it my MAIN focus where my family is involved. If that made any sense at all...... At least *I* know what I am trying to say. LOL

well, when it comes to making money...my vote goes for porn but you can't announce to the world that you are working in an adult industry..so i would choose both instead..
