Starting a program... honest input please - GoFuckYourself.com

Danger Mouse · 01-23-2006, 04:34 PM

So sparing you my life story, I'm a web guy by trade, working in the DVD side of adult. Over the past few days, I've had some extensive talks with a few friends who control very large, prominent DVD companies and their content libraries. All of these guys own shitloads of content (collectively over 5000 scenes), have more money than god, and not a clue about the internet.

An idea I floated was to pool our energies and set up a sort of cooperative infrastructure among a few companies, sharing employees, servers, etc., to build a substantial new program. My question is this - if we built up a network of 20-30 sites featuring all high-end content across niches (straight gonzo, reality, gay, bi, shemale), and had cash and knowledgable leadership behind us, what are the prospects of building a legit, highly profitable program with 12 months?

Programs all have started with an idea, I think you have a good chance of doing something good. If you have the resources, money, content, ideas...and the knowledge then roll with it. I will say there will be ups and downs and if you want to succeed take each bump as a learning experience and inprove. Good Luck.

leedsfan · 01-23-2006, 04:39 PM

Too many hands in the cookie jar. Pick 1 or 2 of the best of them and do it. If you know what your doing and are trust worthy, you may do well.

Hey we'll stay out of the internet business if all you online guys stay out of our DVD business. You listening Naughty America and Cyberheat?

thats not gonna happen. i see it getting to be more online going into dvd fullfillment and licensing.

i'm not saying you can't do it. doing it seriously and just doing it to do it are different though.

well, sounds like you could have a descent flow of sales in 12 months if you put your mind to it, especially with the content already available and the $$ to back up the project! Good luck!

I suggest you talk to Penfold, he has a ton of ideas...
