you guys fucked Penthouse out of business

I?m not sure whos win/fault it was:
1. big tgp?s with tons of free content
2. $2.95 instant access trials
3. Circle jerking between 1 and 2.

But you guys really did it. Penthouse is on the way to hell:

(The New York Times - Apr 08 8:57 AM ET )

Cybersmut and Debt Undermine Penthouse At 71, Bob Guccione, the creator of Penthouse magazine, is acknowledging that the publication's run is at an end.

That's right. Now beat it, before Elite2 decides to put you out of business, too.

*flexes again*

I think what was interesting was when Larry Flynt was doing his interview recently and he predicted what would come of the adult magazine and internet business in the years to come...

He said that there would still be a magazine component that will never go away but most of the business would be on the net.

I find it hard to believe Penthouse Magazine did not have an online component like Hustler does?

They use to have one, I made some pretty good money with them some years ago.. There 3rd party processor almost went out of business and they didn't switch just quit there partner's program... There old processor is 1 of the well
know ones that is so very happy that Visa quit doing transaction for Beasty site's and post here some times ( 1 of the 1st cc processor on the Net I believe)... I lost 20 to 30 recurring members...

I got an email from them 1 day saying there cc processor quit taking (forget which one 1st) AmeX, then Visa... So they did away with there partner program...

Maybe if Guccione had run something besides the typical 3 pictorials of retarded girls licking mutatant pussies and the 10,000 pages of phonesex ads, they'd actually have people who might...gasp...want to pay $7 for thier piece of shit phonesex directory disguised as a magazine....

Exactly. Naked chicks come and go, but everyone stops to watch the vampire chick drink blood.
